Bernard Lubitz raises from middle position to 17,000, Justin Zaki calls from late position, and Todd Jacobson moves all in from the cutoff for 198,000. Lubitz calls all in for 117,000, and Zaki goes into the tank — a call would put him all in.

Zaki thinks for several minutes, and at one point he says, "This is the longest I’ve tanked." Zaki eventually folds, leaving himself 147,000.

Jacobson shows [AdKs], and Lubitz turns over [QcQh] for a race situation.

The board comes [AcJd10h10s10d], and Jacobson pairs his ace on the flop to win the pot with a full house, tens full of aces, and eliminate Lubitz in 22nd place.

Zaki claims to have folded "two black jacks," which would have won the pot with a higher full house (jacks full of tens), but another player reassures him that folding was the correct play, regardless of the result.

Todd Jacobson  –  350,000  (58 BBs)
Justin Zaki  –  147,000  (24 BBs)
Bernard Lubitz  –  Out in 22nd Place ($8,629)

When this level started 20 minutes ago, Jacobson had only 75,000 in chips (12.5 big blinds), but he’s nearly up to an average stack now.
