Jacobson's Ladder

[user76023]

Martin Jacobson moved all-in from the button for around 400,000 and Sam Trickett gave him a spin in the big blind. Jacobson flipped over {A-Clubs} {6-Spades} and then both players laughed when Trickett turned over {A-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}

"Red!" shouted the British rail and they almost got their wish but the board came {9-Spades} {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} for a chop.

The very next hand and Jacobson was all-in again versus Trickett, this time behind with {K-Spades} {J-Spades} against the British player's {A-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} . The flop came {2-Clubs} {4-Spades} {10-Clubs} and once again the UK rail shouted, "Five-ball!" but after the turn {4-Clubs} paired the board, the river was the {J-Hearts} and Jacobson doubled up to 850,000 shaking EPT Champion Anton Wigg's hand in celebration.
