Level 28
: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Ryan Lenaghan raised to 175,000 to open the action from early position, and he found action from both Stephane Albertini and Hilton Laborda to go three-handed to the flop. It came , and Lenaghan continued out with 290,000. That folded Albertini, but Laborda called to see another card, heads-up now.
It was the that dropped on fourth street, and Lenaghan loaded up with another 625,000 chips and fired them into the pot. Laborda liked his hand enough to raise to 1.575 million, and Lenaghan's quick fold earned the Brazilian the pot.
