Carlton's Jacks Good for Knockout
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
The big blind had just 25,000, and was forced all in, posting the 20,000 big blind and his final 5,000 going towards his ante. Action folded around to Everett Carlton in middle position, who called. The cutoff called as well, creating side action.
The trio watched the flop hit the table. Carlton fired for 40,000. The cutoff called. Carlton continued for 135,000 on the turn, which was too much for the cutoff, who got out of the way, meaning it was a showdown between Carlton and the big blind.
Big Blind Player:
Everett Carlton:
Carlton had the best of it, but did need to fade a few outs of his opponent. He did so successfully, as the river was a brick. He scooped the main and side pots, and eliminated his opponent.
