Lafata Doubles Through Lemery
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Dylan Lemery raised to 8,000 in the cutoff which saw both blinds call including Mark Lafata in the big blind.
The flop of K♥10♦8♣ saw Lafata bet 16,000 once the small blind checked and only Lemery called.
The turn peeled off the J♥ and Lafata sized up to 27,000. Lemery raised to 79,000 and Lafata quickly moved all in for 167,000 total. Lemery went into the tank before calling to put Lafata at risk.
Mark Lafata: 10♣8♦
Dylan Lemery: A♥2♥
The river J♠ did not improve Lemery's hand and Lafata took down a massive pot to double through the chip leader.
