Lampropoulos Spikes Turn to Double
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Alexander Lampropoulos went for it when he jammed for 33,500 on the button. Anirudh Seth woke up with a hand he was willing to call with in the big blind to put Lampropoulos at risk for his tournament life.
Alexander Lampropoulos: J♦10♣
Anirudh Seth: K♠9♥
Seth flopped best when the dealer fanned out 9♦6♠5♠ to maintain his lead.
The turn was all Lampropoulos, however, when it came the J♠ to give him top pair. Lampropoulos was not out of the woods yet, as Seth had plenty of outs with a flush draw.
That did not come to pass on the 4♣ river and Lampropoulos held to secure the double-up.
