Bus Runs Over Lamalle
Level 22
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Thomas Bus opened to 25,000 from the cutoff and Day 1b chip leader Steven Lamalle defended the big blind.
On the J♠10♣6♠ flop, Lamalle check-called a bet of 30,000 from Bus.
The K♥ hit on the turn, and the same pattern followed, this time in respect of a bet of 100,000 from Bus.
The 7♣ river completed the board. Lamalle checked for a third time, and Bus didn't take too long before moving all-in for 332,000.
Lamalle went into the tank, and after about 90 seconds of thought, flicked in a calling chip.
Bus flipped over Q♠9♥ for the turned straight, and Lamalle mucked.
