Lakemeier Applying Agression

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 5,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

Jens Lakemeier has taken an agressive strategy of raising almost every pot and betting when given the chance. For the most part, he's met little resistance, but he has been up and down, trading pots with the players at the table. In a recent Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo hand, he took on Andrew Kelsall.

Lakemeier limped from the small blind, and Kelsall checked his big blind.

On the {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop, both players checked to see the {4-Hearts} on the turn. There, Lakemeier bet 39,000, and Kelsall called. The river was the {Q-Hearts}, pairing the board. Lakemeier slowed down with a check. Kelsall took the opportunity to bet 68,000. Lakemeier thought for a minute then plopped out a raise of what looked like 275,000. Kelsall didn't take too long to fold, and Lakemeier took down the pot.

Lakemeier has regained his chip lead in the tournament and is using it to apply a lot of pressure to his opponents.
