Peter Jaksland Coolers Andrej Cintula in a Monster Pot

Siamak Tooran opens the action from the cutoff, making it 10,000. Josef Gulas calls from the button, Peter Jaksland joins from the small blind, and Andrej Cintula comes along from the big.

“Family pot,” someone at the table notes, not knowing that the encounter would escalate into one of the highlight hands of the tournament as the following action emerges.

The flop comes and the blinds let Tooran c-bet 14,000. Gulas calls and Jaksland calls as well, but Cintula counters with a 40,000-raise. Tooran and Gulas escape, and Jaksland calls.

The hits the felt on the turn, and Jaksland checks. Cintula bets 65,000 and Jaksland moves all in for 275,500. Cintula flicks in calling chip, creating a 700,000-pot.

Cintula had flopped a full house but Jaksland binked the jackpot on the turn, making a straight flush. The river is irrelevant as Jaksland already knows he’s locked the massive pot.

Peter Jaksland – 703,000
Andrej Cintula – 80,000
