Agarwal Gets Value with Jacks
The blinds have just passed through Aditya Agarwal's seat, and Agarwal was involved in both of the previous hands.
First hand saw Agarwal in the big blind, calling a raise to 3,000 from a player in the hijack. There had already been one limp from a middle position, and the limper wanted to see the flop, too.
The 
flop brought a 3,000 cbet and only Agarwal paid before the 
went check-check.
The river card was the 
and Agarwal checked again, letting his opponent fire another 3,500. Agarwal thought for a bit before calling, only to see opponent's 
.
The next hand ended up better for Agarwal, who was in the small blind. With the preflop action unknown, it seemed that Agarwal three-bet over a raise from the cutoff as there was already more than 20,000 in the pot when the two players checked 5sKsKc flop.
They checked the 
turn, too, but Agarwal led out 8,500 on the 
river. He received a call, so he announced, "jacks", turning over his 
to take down the juicy pot.
