Jaka Wins a 100,000 Pot with Ace-Queen High
Faraz Jaka was sitting behind quite a big stack and when he got up from the table to stretch his legs, we asked him if he had won a big hand. "Yeah, I won a quite interesting hand." Jaka told us what had happened.
The player in seat 1 opened to 1,200 in the previous level (250/500). The player in seat 4 three bet to 3,000 from the hijack and Faraz Jaka was sitting in the small blind and four bet to 7,200. The big blind and initial raiser folded, seat 4 made the call.
The flop came 
and Jaka check called a bet of 6,500. Jaka check called another 11,500 on the 
turn and an off suit 
hit the river. Jaka checked, and called the 22,000 shove that followed with nothing but 
. His opponent had even less, showing a red 
for absolutely nothing.
And so the 96,500 pot went Jaka's way, while the player in seat 4 exited the tournament in the second to last level.
