Jacobsen Rivers Fricke

Hjalti Jacobsen opened with a raise to 3,500 and Jimmy Fricke made the call. Both players checked the {9-Spades}{7-Spades}{Q-Clubs} flop before Jacobsen led out with a 5,000 chip bet on the {6-Diamonds} turn. Fricke made the call.

The river brought the {K-Diamonds} and Jacobsen fired out 11,000 on the river. Fricke then moved all in and Jacobsen made the call.

Fricke tabled {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for top two pair but Jacobsen held {10-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for the straight to collect a monster pot.

Jacobsen is now up to 70,000 chips while Fricke slips to 75,000.
