Lake Scores Double
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
The hand began with a limp from an early position player before the button chose to raise it to 5,000. Austin Lake made the call out of the big blind and the limper folded.
Lake checked the 8♦J♠5♠ flop before the button bet 3,500. Lake responded with a check-raise to 9,000 and was called by the button.
The 4♦ turn did not slow Lake down as he chose to go all-in for 15,400. His opponent gave it some thought before he made the call to put Lake at risk.
Austin Lake: A♦J♦
Opponent: 10♥8♥
Lake was well ahead and the river bricked out with a 3♣ to award Lake the double up.
