Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player opened to 7,500 from middle position and Columba Duffy called on the button. Pat Lyons came along in the small blind, as did the big blind.
On the 8♥8♣4♠ flop, Lyons led for 6,000 and only Duffy called.
The turn was the 2♠. Lyons sized up to 16,500 and Duffy snap-called.
On the K♠ river, Lyons fired a third time for 20,500 and Duffy did not take long before he put in the call. Lyons tabled 10♣8♠ for the small blind special as he dragged another pot.
