Level 3: 100/200

Jay Fiengold

Je Wook Oh raised to 800 from middle position and three players called. The big blind re-raised to 2,500 and all three players called.

They went four handed to the 8♣️5♥️3♥️ flop and the small blind checked. The big blind fired out a bet of 4,000 and Oh called. 

 The player in late position called and with the action on Jay Fiengold on the button he raied to 12,000. The big blind called and they went heads up to the 9♠️ turn.

Both players checked and the 2♦️ completed the board. Again both players checked and the big blind turned over A♥️6♥️ for a missed flush draw. Fiengold tabled his 5♣️6♠️ and his pair of fives was enough to scoop the sizeable pot.

 Jay Fiengold- 40,000
