Lakhov Makes The Nuts
Level 25
: 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Alexander Lakhov opened under the gun to 60,000, and action folded rather quickly to Dmitry Gromov in the small blind. Gromov three-bet to 200,000, and Lakhov flatted in position.
Both players checked the 
flop, and so did they on the 
-turn.
The river came the 
and Gromov checked again. Lakhov bet 310,000 with just 380,000 behind, and Gromov went into the tank. Eventually he called, but he had to muck after Lakhov showed him the 
for the nuts.
