Nolan Doubles With Two Jacks

Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jack Nolan raised to 2,500 from middle position and the action folded to Oleksii Natoptanyi in the big blind, who made the defending call. The flop fell 4?2?8? and Nolan continued for 3,000 after a check from Natoptanyi.
Natoptanyi made the call and did so too when Nolan bet 4,000 more on the Q? turn. The 7? river then completed the board and Natoptanyi checked for a third time.
Nolan decided to put it all in, risking his stack of 16,600. Natoptanyi sat in the tank for a while before emerging with a call. Nolan showed J?J? for a pair of jacks and Natoptanyi tried to muck his hand.
The dealer retrieved his K?8? for a pair of eights, however, and the pot was sent Nolan's way, who acquired a full double up.
