Juanda Makes a Jack
Livello 23
: 12,000/24,000, 6,000 ante
Phil Hellmuth raised to 60,000, and John Juanda took pause. He grinned and announced, "One Eighty-Five," and Hellmuth didn't waste any time making the call.
Juanda drew one card, and he continued out with a bet of 200,000 straight. Hellmuth pulled two cards, and he liked them well enough to call. Juanda showed the first, and Hellmuth knocked the table in acknowledgement. His full hand showed , and it was good.
With that exchange, Hellmuth is back to about 2.6 million while Juanda climbs to about 1.2 million.
