Lamb's Set Holds in a Three-Way Showdown
Level 6
: 0/0, 4,000 ante
Ben Lamb limped under the gun, Paul Phua and Peter Jetten both overlimped and Phil Ivey checked on the button.
The flop came down ![]()
![]()
and Ivey was the only one who escaped, folding his ![]()
after Phua pushed his 150,000 towards the middle and Jetten reshoved for 201,000. Lamb flopped the bottom set and put both Phua and Jetten at risk.
Phua: ![]()
![]()
Jetten: ![]()
![]()
Lamb: ![]()
![]()
It was almost a perfectly fair race with Lamb being the biggest favorite, having 35% equity to scoop the whole pot. The
turn gave Jetten a flush draw but Lamb managed to avoid all bad cards on the
river.
Jetten reloaded while Phua lost his final bullet and left the table. Lamb vaulted over 1 million in chips.
