Bottom Pair Good for Lakhov
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Miika Toyras opened from the hijack to 1,200. Action folded to Aleksandr Lakhov in the big blind who defended.
The flop of 8♦J♦9♠ was checked by both players, as was the 6♥ turn.
Lakhov then led the 2♣ river for 500, before saying "don't reraise me, just call or fold." Toyras opted to muck his holding and Lakhov tabled the 2♦ and slid the other card face down into the muck.
