Lemke Runs Right Into a Set
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Otto Lemke raised to 80,000 in middle position and was called by Benjamin Pitoun in the hijack, as well as Martin Schamaun in the cutoff.
The flop came Q♦7♣4♠ and Lemke continued for 90,000. Only Pitoun called to see the 8♥ turn.
Lemke then bet another 150,000 and Pitoun called once more. The river came the 8♦ and Lemke slowed down and checked.
Pitoun came out with 235,000 and Lemke moved all in. Pitoun practically beat him into the pot for his last 780,000, turning over 7♦7♥ for a full house. Lemke could only show J♦J♣ as he handed over the double up.
