LeBlond Spikes to a Set to Send Abdo Home
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante
OIeg Svintsov raised to 7,000 from early position with Benjamin LeBlond calling from the small blind. Naji Abdo bumped it up to 28,500 from the big blind, which was called by both of his opponents.
LeBlond knuckled the action over to Abdo on the 8♦4♣6♣ flop, and Abdo overbet jammed for around 150,000. Svintsov tank-folded before LeBlond snap-called with the covering stack.
Naji Abdo: K♠K♥
Benjamin LeBlond: 4♠4♦
LeBlond flopped a set, and Abdo needed a Cowboy on the turn or river to survive. The 5♥ turn and 9♠ river didn't improve Abdo, and LeBlond won the pot with a set of fours.
