Lofberg’s Aces Hold in a Modest Pot
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
With around 1,800 already in the pot and the board reading K♥A♣Q♣6♦, Simon Lofberg, first to act, checked over to Lasse Hansen. Hansen took the lead with a bet of 900, putting the decision back on Lofberg. After some long deliberation, Lofberg opted to call.
The J♣ landed on the river, and Lofberg checked once more. Hansen, appearing less confident, decided against another bet and checked back.
At showdown, Lofberg revealed A♥5♦ for a pair of aces, which was enough to take down the pot as Hansen mucked his cards without further contest.
