Starting Stack

[user46298]

Stud:

"Nothing's happened yet," helpfully informs British table-chatter Stephen Pearce, "We're all on our starting stacks." Just as he says this, however, he gets into a pot with Gary Jones, which brings him a few hundred over his original 10,000.

Jones completed showing the {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

, Pearce raised to 200 with the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

. Pearce bet all the remaining streets, too, including when Jones checked when they showed:
Pearce: {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

Jones:

{8-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{6-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

He received a call of his 200 on the river too, and sort of shuffled his three hidden cards in a way which wasn't too delighted, but it turns out that with {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

down his pair of Jacks was actually good.
