Kwang Doubles Up with Jacks


A UTG player opened the action for 1,000 preflop and had callers from the middle and hi-jack positions. Lim Choon Kwang had a better idea though; re-raise to 4,500. UTG folds, MP folds but the hi-jack player three-bet to 13,500. Kwang responded with the four-bet shove putting himself at risk in this showdown:

Kwang: J J
Hi-Jack Player: A Q

All Kwang needed was to avoid an ace or queen; he did on the flop 2 4 9 then the turn 10 and the river 9 as well for the double up. Kwang now has around 45,000.
