More Chips Head Lewis' Way; More Beers Head the Rail's Way
After a few hands' worth of small-ball back and forth, the following bit of juicy action occurred.
Toby Lewis raised to 125,000 on the button and Martin Jacobson called. They saw a flop.
Flop:
Jacobson checked to Lewis, who bet 150,000. Jacobson now check-raised to 375,000. Lewis made the call.
Turn: - bringing in a variety of draws
Jacobson now bet out 525,000 - but after a few moments of silent tankage, Lewis made it 1.9 million. Jacobon looked frankly a little alarmed, and peeked at his hole cards. Before long he'd folded, and as the British rail stopped chugging beers long enough to cheer wildly, Lewis increased his stack to 8.1 million. Jacobson is now looking relatively short on 3.4 million.
