Lemarquand Flops the Best Pair
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Diane Zimmerman raised to 7,000 on the button and was called by Matthew Perez in the small blind. Erik Lemarquand pushed all in for 73,000 out of the big blind and only Zimmerman called.
Erik Lemarquand: K♣Q♣
Diane Zimmerman: A♥10♦
The flop came K♠10♠4♣ to give each player a pair but it was Lemarquand who had the better of the two. The 9♠ on the turn and the 3♣ on the river changed nothing and Lemarquand staved off elimination.
