Action saw 35,000 go in preflop from both James Lawrence in the hijack and Cody Jaeschke in the cutoff. The two saw a flop of and Lawrence checked. Jaeschke put out a bet of 50,000 and Lawrence check-raised to 140,000.
Jaeschke thought for a bit and then announced he was all in. Lawrence quickly called, leaving Jaeschke unhappy at the transpiration of events.
Cody Jaeschke:
James Lawrence:
Jaeschke's pair of nines was still best but he would need to fade a dozen of the remaining cards in the deck to stay on top. The turn was exactly what he didn't need, giving Lawrence the nuts before the river finished the runout.
Stacks were counted and Lawrence's was totaled to be 287,000. Jaeschke's was 250,000 and he was wished a good game from all before making his way to the payout desk.
