Jacobson Takes An Early Hit
Martin Jacobson has just taken a substantial hit over on Table 3 after a clash with Pierre-Olivier Jandaud.
Jacobson opened with a raise from early position to 1,300 and after Tim Ludwig had folded, Jandaud made the call. The rest of the players at the table folded and it was heads up to the 
flop. Jacobson sat motionless for 30 seconds before betting 1,300, a bet that Jandaud called relatively quickly.
The dealer put the 
out on the turn and Jacobson spent another 30 seconds thinking before tapping the table and checking. Jandaud picked up 2,800 worth of chips and placed then in a neat tower in the centre of the table. After staring at his opponent for 15 seconds of so, Jacobson asked Jandaud how many chips he had and the Frenchman simply moved his arms so Jacobson could count for himself. Shortly afterwards the EPT online Qualifier of the Year check-raised to 8,300. Jandaud made the call and it was off the the river.
The river was the 
and Jacobson went into his trademark pose for 30 seconds before betting 14,300. Jandaud instantly called and turned over 
, which beat Jacobson as he quickly mucked.
Jacobson is not in any immediate danger but he has slipped to 47,400 chips.
