Mackoff Folds to Two Jams

Level 31 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

Valentin Messina raised to 500,000 two hands in a row. The first hand saw him scoop the blinds and antes, while Michael Sklenicka three-bet the second hand to 1,300,000 on the button. Messina folded and dropped below 28 million in chips.

Sklenicka raised the next hand to 450,000 from the cutoff, and Alexandre Reard called in the small blind. The {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop drew a check from Reard, and Sklenicka asked, "You have five [million] behind?" which Reard comfirmed. Sklenicka checked behind and did so again on the {K-Hearts} turn. Reard's bet of 975,000 on the {3-Spades} river claimed the pot.

Then, Benjamin Pollak limped the small blind, and Jonas Mackoff raised to 800,000 in the big blind. Pollak moved all in, and Mackoff quickly folded.

The very next hand, Reard made it 450,000 to go from the cutoff, and Mackoff three-bet to 950,000 in the small blind. Back on Reard, he four-bet all in, and Mackoff folded to the second shove in a row.
