Lynskey Drops a Chunk to Brewer Right Away
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Alex Lynskey had just taken his seat in the tournament when he opened to 5,500 in early position. Chris Brewer, dressed in a festive Christmas sweater, then three-bet to 17,000 in the hijack, Lynskey four-bet to 33,000, and Brewer called.
The flop came K♥K♦8♣ and Lynskey bet 15,000. Brewer called to the 7♥ turn, where Lynskey bet another 65,000. Brewer again called.
Lynskey bet 25,000 on the Q♥ river and Brewer this time came back with a raise to 138,000. Lynskey folded and Brewer took the pot.
