Hen Fades Many Outs to Triple Up
Level 28
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Ihar Khursin opened to 330,000 from the cutoff and Mikael Hen called from the small blind, leaving just 45,000 behind. Juan Lamprea defended from the big blind.
The flop came Q♣2♠4♣ and Hen moved all in for his last 45,000. Lamprea called before Khursin raised to 360,000. Lamprea raised to 1,640,000, leaving only 420,000 behind, and after briefly considering his options Khursin opted to fold leaving Hen all in and at risk against Lamprea.
Mikael Hen: K♥Q♠
Juan Lamprea: 6♣2♣
Hen was ahead with top pair but still had to fade any two, six or club from Lamprea, who had flopped bottom pair with a flush draw. The 7♥ turn and 9♥ river were clean and Hen secured a full triple up.
