Kapeller's Aggression Falls Short Against Eskes' Two Pair

Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Siegfried Kapeller kicked off the action with a raise to 100,000, picking up calls from both blinds.
On the 8?6?J? flop, the blinds checked to Kapeller, who continued for 100,000. Tjenno Eskes in the small blind was the only one to stick around.
The 3? turn saw another check from Eskes, prompting Kapeller to fire a bigger bet of 370,000. Eskes quickly called.
When the 3? river arrived, both players checked, and the hand went to showdown. Eskes tabled Q?J? for two pair, jacks and threes, which was enough to take it down as Kapeller sent his cards into the muck.
