Jalba Blazes Through Desset
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Andrej Desset open-raised to 60,000 from under the gun and the action folded to Eusebiu Jalba, who defended. Jalba then check-called a 40,000 bet from Desset on the K♠A♠Q♠ flop before both players checked the Q♦ turn.
The Q♦ river was then put on the felt and Jalba checked for a third time. Desset picked the betting back up by tossing 85,000 chips in the middle. Jalba responded by assembling 420,000 chips for a raise, and the action was back on Desset.
Desset weighed his options, clearly frustrated by the situation. Eventually, however, he folded, showing his J♥ face-up.
