Jalba Rivers a Double Against Pastore
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jonathan Pastore opened to 65,000 from an early position and Eusebiu Jalba three-bet to 165,000 in the cutoff. It folded back to Pastore, who came along to the K♣J♣5♦ flop on which he checked. Jalba continued for 100,000 and Pastore called.
That brought them to the 2♣ turn on which Pastore checked again. Jalba now bet 465,000 with just 60,000 behind. Pastore went into a brief tank before moving all-in and Jalba called it off, then grabbed his belongings already.
Eusebiu Jalba: A♣9♥
Jonathan Pastore: K♥Q♥
Jalba needed an ace or club which he got on the 10♣ river, as he first fist-pumped and then sat back down.
