Lappin Catches a Bluff

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
David Lappin
David Lappin

David Lappin was on the button and up against the player in the big blind on a board that read {2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. After both players had checked the flop, Lappin called a 2,200 bet on the turn, and on the {7-Spades} river, the big blind player overbet the pot for 10,000.

Lappin quickly counted his chips before picking up two 5K chips and made the call.

David Lappin: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{9-Spades}

Lappin's ace-high was good as his opponent only had king-high, and the Irishman moved up to the 48,000 mark.
