Kabrhel’s Gut Instinct Sends Lauck Out
Martin Kabrhel made it 2,400 from the hijack and Jonas Lauck shoved for almost 19,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Kabrhel, he took his time to think it over, then made the call with his stack of just over 30,000, which put Lauck at risk.
Jonas Lauck: J♣J♥
Martin Kabrhel: 10♣8♣
Lauck was in a great spot to double up, but suddenly didn't feel too comfortable upon seeing the 8♥6♣7♠ flop, as Kabrhel made a pair and picked up a straight draw. A 10♠ on the turn improved Kabrhel to two pair, which meant Lauck had one chance to survive.
The 8♠ river wasn't the card Lauck needed as Kabrhel improved to a full house, which sent the Austrian player to the sidelines.
As Lauck made his way to the exit, he couldn't resist a parting quip to Kabrhel, "How did you know?"
