Jacobson Second Best Again
Martin Jacobson was crowned runner-up of runner ups in the seventh EPT season when he finished second in both EPT Deauville and Vilamoura and fourth in Berlin. On top of that he also finished second in the Player of the Year rankings behind Fernando Brito. Just now Jacobson finished second again, but luckily for him it didn't hurt his stack too much.
On a 
flop with three players involved the first one checked to Jacobson who bet 3,000. Giuseppe Vassallo raised it up to 10,000 and the third player folded. Jacobson took some time and made the call.
The turn brought the 
and both players checked. On the river the 
hit and once again the action was checked. Vassallo showed 
and Jacobson mucked his cards.
Jacobson has been active on the live tournament circuit since 2008 and never did he cash less than $260,587 over a whole year. This year he's already got $138,808 in winnings after finishing fourth in the EPT Deauville High Roller for €83,200. On the Swedish all-time money list Jacobson is ranked fourth and much younger than the three players ahead of him. Even with a small stack he's still one of the players to look out for in this event.
