Lofgren Hangs On To Score Big Double Up
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
The action was picked up in a pot of close to 9,000 on a board showing 8♣6♣4♠9♥. The big blind bet out 6,500 and Michael Lofgren raised it up to 13,000 on the button, which the big blind called.
The A♣ hit the river and the big blind moved all in, covering the 16,500 remaining for Lofgren, who went deep in the tank. After close to a minute of thought, Lofgren asked the table a question.
"Is there a rebuy in this?" said Lofgren as he contemplated his decision. The table answered yes and Lofgren announced call.
His opponent rolled over Q♣5♦ for a bluff and Lofgren tabled 6♦4♦ for two pair to scoop the pot and score a full double up.
