Lisandro Picks Up Where He Left Off

Action folded around to the small blind, who limped in, and Jeffrey Lisandro checked his option. We went heads up to a flop of {J-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and the small blind check-called Lisandro's bet of 600.

Both players checked the {8-Diamonds} on the turn and the small blind led for 1,750 when the board paired again with the {J-Clubs}. Lisandro raised an additional 4,000 and the small blind tanked for nearly two minutes before making the call.

Lisandro turned over the {J-Spades} and waited for a reaction. When the small blind tabled {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for 8s full, Lisandro revealed his kicker, the {5-Spades} and took the pot with the bigger house. He now has about 132,000 chips.
