Laxamana Applies Pressure
Level 27
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Three ways to the J♣8♣6♠ flop, the action checked to Edilberto Gopez and he made it 35,000 to go. Marlon Laxamana check-called before Rene David then check-raised to 110,000. Gopez opted to fold before Laxamana used his currently last available time bank chip, which then led to a reraise worth 225,000 total.
David surrendered and exposed the J♦, Laxamana returned the favour and showed his J♠ before collecting the pot.
