Lau on Right Side of Preflop Cooler
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Miroslav Alilovic raised 4,500 in early position and Ka Kwan Lau three-bet 13,500 next to act. The action folded to Lars Tungel on the button and he dropped a stack of blues across the line for a raise to 85,000. The blinds and Alilovic quickly got out of the way and Lau paused for a few moments before calling off his stack of 65,500.
Ka Kwan Lau: J♣J♦
Lars Tungel: 10♣10♠
Lau had Tungel dominated and the J♥8♠3♥ flop improved him to a set of jacks. The Q♦ turn meant Tungel wasn't drawing dead as he picked up a gutshot straight draw, but the 5♠ river was a brick for Lau to collect the double.
