Martinez Bubbles, Lagan Doubles in Same Hand

Frank Visser

Level 19 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Sam Greenwood kicked off the action with a raise to 60,000 as first to act. Paul Lagan then three-bet to 125,000 in the next seat before Albert Martinez called all-in for 50,000.

Greenwood called the three-bet to create a side pot for the K♠4♦2♠ flop. Greenwood checked, Lagan bet 65,000, and Greenwood called. Greenwood then checked again on the 5♥ turn, after which Lagan quickly shoved for 360,000.

Greenwood thought it over for a bit before calling it off, after which all three players tabled their cards.

Albert Martinez: 10♦10♣ All in
Paul Lagan: K♦K♣ All in
Sam Greenwood: K♥J♠

Both Martinez and Greenwood were already drawing dead against the top set of Lagan, and the inconsequential 10♠ river marked the official bursting of the bubble.

Martinez left the tournament in 14th place while the remaining 13 players continued playing, having secured at least €8,300 for their efforts.
