Birkmose Starts Comeback
Level 13
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Stefan Lehner limped in from middle position, and "Sonic" did so on the button. Daniel Birkmose then raised to 60,000 in the small blind, which both opponents called.
Birkmose quickly tossed in his final 36,000 on the A♣J♣A♠ flop. Lehner called, while "Sonic" gave up after some thought.
Daniel Birkmose: A♥K♦K♣Q♣
Stefan Lehner: J♥9♣8♥8♦.
Lehner was drawing dead after the 2♥ turn, and Birkmose nearly tripled as the river was dealt.
