Lamb Takes from Van Der Spuy on the River
Level 3
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Jean-Pierre Van Der Spuy bet 12,000 on a flop of 7♠10♦7♣ and Ben Lamb called in the big blind.
The turn came the 4♦ and Van Der Spuy continued for 15,000. Lamb raised to 58,000 and Van Der Spuy quickly called.
Both players checked the J♦ and Lamb showed J♣9♥8♦6♣ for the rivered straight. Van Der Spuy flashed two kings before he mucked.
"Worse news is I was going to bluff it off on a deuce. If you called, which you probably would have," Lamb told Van Der Spuy after the hand.
