Lovric Rides Top Set to the Chip Lead
Level 21
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Filip Lovric limped in from under the gun before Tomas Ribeiro raised to 200,000 on the button. The blinds got out of the way, but Lovric called to see the K♥3♣6♦ flop.
He checked and Ribeiro bet another 525,000. Lovric then moved all in for 1,250,000 and Ribeiro quickly called.
Filip Lovric: K♠K♣6♠4♠
Tomas Ribeiro: K♦Q♥Q♦2♥
Lovric clapped his hands together when he saw he was a big favorite to earn the massive double up. The 8♣ on the turn left Ribeiro already drawing dead, while the A♦ on the river was a mere formality as Lovric doubled up into the chip lead.
