Jacks Again, Fernandez Keeps Going

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Patrik Antonius picked up {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} under the gun and opened the action to 135,000. Javier Fernandez found another pair of jacks and called with {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} from the cutoff. The {J-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop was huge for Fernandez as he flopped top set. Antonius bet 200,000 and Fernandez called in position.

Antonius slowed down on the {Q-Diamonds} turn and checked. Fernandez bet 675,000 and Antonius called the bet. The river brought another queen, the {Q-Clubs}, and Antonius checked again.

"All in," Fernandez said, for a total of 2,455,000, nearly all of Antonius' remaining stack as well. The Finn stared his opponent down before laying his hand down. Fernandez moved up to second place after the hand as the eight remaining players went into the break.
