Jacks Help Alontsau Chip Up

Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Siegfried Kapeller made it 120,000 from under the gun and Siarhei Alontsau three-bet to 300,000 in the cutoff. When it got back to Kapeller, he called.
On the 8?5?6? flop, Kapeller decided to lead out with a bet of 250,000, and Alontsau called.
A 6? on the turn saw another bet from Kapeller, this time for 300,000, and Alontsau called at lightning speed.
When the 8? filled out the board on the river, both players opted to check it down with Kapeller showing 7?7?, but Alontsau had the winner with J?J?.
