Coleman Leaves Lasouski Guessing
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko raised to 4,000 in the hijack, which both David Coleman and Artsiom Lasouski called from the cutoff and button.
Following a check from Kirichenko on the J♦4♠3♦ flop, Coleman bet 4,000, which both Lasouski and Kirichenko called. Coleman continued with another bet on the 2♣ turn, this time for 14,500. Lasouski responded with a raise to 41,000, which quickly folded out Kirichenko, but Coleman called.
When the flush-completing 8♣ hit the board, Coleman led out for 120,000. Lasouski gave it serious consideration, but with a wry smile, opted to fold.
"Ace-jack?" Lasouski asked Coleman, receiving no reply.
