Ferguson Spikes River to Double Through Jaka
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
There was three-way action after a flop between Faraz Jaka from late position, Chris Ferguson from the small blind and Mitchell Hecht from the big blind.
Action was checked to Jaka who fired out 9,000 into a 10,000 pot and Ferguson raised all in for 52,300. Hecht mucked his hand while Jaka called.
Faraz Jaka:
Chris Ferguson:
Jaka flopped top-pair with a back door flush draw while Ferguson held a pair of eights with an open-ended staright draw.
The turn was no help to Ferguson but the river was one of the cards he was looking for as he scored the double up through Jaka.
