"I'm So Confused"

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Back in October, Jason Lavallee won the PokerStars.com European Poker Tour London High Roller for £357,700. Lavallee is in today's field looking to become the first player to ever win two EPT high roller titles, but he just faced a set back in a hand against David Kaufmann.

It began when Kaufmann opened under the gun only to have Lavallee three-bet to 4,400. Kaufmann made the call and the both players checked the {q-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades} flop. When the {7-Spades} turned. Lavallee led out for 5,400, Kaufmann called, and the {5-Spades} completed the board on the river.

Lavallee slowed down with a check, and Kaufmann took his time before betting 8,400.

"I'm so confused," Lavallee admitted as he contemplated what to do for nearly two minutes. The bet constituted a good portion of his stack, but he decided to see it. Once the chips hit the felt, Kaufmann tabled the {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} for the nuts. Lavallee stared at the cards for a moment and then sent his own to the muck unseen.
