Herboldt Hits a Jack to Double

Justin Herboldt moved all in for 1,050,000 from the hijack, and Dennis Kleinleugemors called from the cutoff.

Herboldt: K♠J♦
Kleinleugemors: A♦K♦

Board: 9♥3♦2♣J♣3♠

Herboldt’s hand was dominated and received no help from the flop. But his chances of survival dramatically improved when he paired his jack on the turn, and Kleinleugemors was unable to catch up on the river.

Kleinleugemors fell back down to 1,100,000 and Herboldt moved up to 2,400,000.
