Set for Lankinen as Laihinen Escapes from Top Pair
Level 21
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Pasi Laihinen opened to 80,000 from the cutoff with A♣K♠, and Tommi Lankinen called in the cutoff with 7♠7♣.
The K♦3♠2♣ flop was checked to the 7♥ turn, where Laihinen fired out a delayed continuation bet of 100,000. Lankinen called.
The Q♣ river completed the board, and Laihinen fired out a bet of 300,000.
Lankinen responded with a raise to 1,100,000, and Laihinen, playing 870,000 behind, grimaced, looking surprised at the response.
He thought through the spot for a good three minutes, seemingly perplexed by the hand, but ultimately found a great fold.
