Lampert Doubles Up Spoerri
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Picking up the action on a flop of J♠5♥7♥ and with around 40,000 in the middle, Ramon Lampert had put out a bet of 12,000, only to be faced by a check-jam by Spoerri to 46,000.
Lampert considered his options momentarily before making the call to put Spoerri at risk.
Christoph Spoerri: J♥9♥
Ramon Lampert: A♥Q♦
Spoerri was in good shape with a pair of jacks and the flush draw versus Lampert's ace high.
However the A♣ rolled off on the turn putting Lampert in front with a pair of aces. Spoerri was not to be denied the double-up however as the Q♥ river gave Spoerri the flush.
