Lamb Gets a Tank-Fold

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Ben Lamb
Ben Lamb

Ben Lamb was out of position in a heads-up pot against Aleksey Filatov on a board reading {3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} with around 25,000 in the middle.

Lamb led out with a river bet of 13,500 and sent Filatov into a deep tank that lasted three to four minutes, with Lamb's eyes never leaving his thinking opponent.

Adding tension to the situation, Stephen Chidwick sat a few seats over with his eyes glued on Filatov.

Someone at the table called the clock and Filatov instantly folded. Lamb let him flip over two of his cards, an agreement that revealed {q-Spades}{9-Spades} for a miss.

"Look at that piece of shit!" table mate Nicholas Julia said about the revealed hand.

But Lamb then flipped over the {k-Diamonds} to show that he may in fact have had something.

"There it is!" Julia amended.
