Elias Out Flops Lichtenberger
Level 8
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Darren Elias opened from the hijack with a raise to 10,000, and it folded to the big blind Andrew Lichtenberger, who three-bet to 30,000. Elias gave it some thought before making the call.
Both players checked to showdown after the board ran out A♠Q♦9♠6♠A♦. Lichtenberger turned over 8♠8♦ but Elias had the winner when he tabled K♥9♥ to take the pot with his pair of nines.
