Lehr's Four-Bet Fails

Keith Lehr raised to 125,000 from the hijack and Shannon Shorr three-bet from the button to 265,000. The action was folded back to Lehr, and he four-bet to 395,000. This was not a possible raise size, and he had to make it 405,000.

Shorr decided to move all in, and after about a minute Lehr kicked it in.

Andrew Lichtenberger

Shannon Shorr raised under the gun to 125,000, and Gregory Merson three-bet to 265,000 from the hijack. Andrew Lichtenberger was on the button and he four-bet to 405,000. Shorr opted to fold, and Merson moved all in. Lichtenberger made the call.

Lichtenberger showed {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}, and he was out in front against Merson's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}.

The flop brought out {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, and Lichtenberger needed to dodge a ten to survive. The turn was the {10-Hearts}, and Merson filled up his straight. Lichtenberger could still chop if a queen hit or win with a heart, but the river was the {A-Clubs}.

We are down to five players.
