Lammas Doubled Off Revenas

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Tobias Revenäs open jammed for around 150,000 and Aleksander Lammas called also going all-in.

Revenäs sighed after the call and his initial thoughts were confirmed after he turned over {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and his opponent turned over {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}.

He started to get up out of his seat after Lammas hit a set on the {6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{a-Clubs} flop. The {5-Clubs} on the turn and the {5-Spades} on the river completed the board and Revenäs was a couple of seats at the table.

Lammas, who was a happy vocal player yesterday, began singing about a double up before he called Revenäs back to his seat.

"You had me covered," said Lammas.

Sure enough, after the dealer counted out the chips and Revenäs still had a handful remaining.

Meanwhile, at the same time on other tables, Asmund Gørstad was eliminated in 39th place followed by Niklas Vakkuri in 38th place. Both players will walk away with the minimum cash of €1,155.
