Alex Jacob Doubles Up and Takes the Chip Lead
After Alex Jacob limps in from early position, Greg Baird raises to $7,000. Alex Jacob then reraises to $25,000 and Baird moves all in. Jacob calls all in for $183,500 immediately and shows AdiamondAspade. Baird turns over 10diamond10heart and will need help. However, the board comes KheartQheart3spade7club8spade and Alex Jacob doubles up to around $370,000 and takes over the chip lead.

Jordan is one of the best players of his generation. He bets wisely and plays very aggresively when the odds are in his favor.

Michael DeMichele Eliminated 3rd ($215,194)
Alex Jacob raises to $75,000 preflop and Michael DeMichele reraises to $325,000. Jacob moves all in and DeMichele goes into the tank. After several minutes, DeMichele makes the call and shows 8club8diamond. Jacob turns over KheartQheart and will need to improve. He gets the help he needs on a board of Kclub9diamond5clubAclub6heart. Jacob makes a pair of kings to eliminate DeMichele in third place.
