Lakhov Makes Big Fold
Level 5
: 300/600, 600 ante
A massive pot of 45,500 had been gathered in the middle, with Aleksandr Lakhov and Nemanja Lukovic still in contention for it. Lakhov made a bet of 11,000 from early position on a board of 4♣5♦10♣J♦ and Lukovic jammed all in for 28,700.
Lakhov thought for a long time until eventually the clock was called. He was given a countdown but folded his hand before it had reached the end.
Lakhov claimed to have folded aces, much to the surprise of Lukovic, who raked in the pot with a big smile on his face.
