Jose Lesta

David Nickel opened to 1,800 from middle position and Jose Lesta raised to 6,600 from the small blind. Nickel called, and the pair saw the 10♥A♦K♣ flop.

Lesta bet 3,200 and Nickel called to get to the 8♠ turn. Both checked and the 7♥ completed the board. No more bets were made, and the cards were tabled. Nickel showed Q♣Q♦ which saw him take down the pot after Lesta table his pocket jacks J♦J♥.
