Worthington-Leese Takes It With Two Pair
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Jianping Zhu opened from late position with a raise to 1,100 and picked up three callers.
The flop came 4♥7♠9♠, and after the action checked around, Lukas Rose fired 2,400 from the button. Only Leo Worthington-Leese called to see the A♣ turn.
Worthington-Leese checked again, and Rose continued for 6,500. Worthington-Leese made the call once more.
When the 8♠ landed on the river, Worthington-Leese checked a third time, and this time Rose checked back. Worthington-Leese tabled 9♦8♣ for two pair, enough to take down the pot as Rose’s cards hit the muck.
