Lucas Gives One Up, Then Doubles
Level 23
: 15,000/30,000, 45,000 ante
Drew Scott opened to 60,000 from the button and Landen Lucas called from the blinds. Both players took one.
Lucas checked to Scott, who slid forward a tower of green 25,000 chips to put Lucas all in for his last 335,000. Lucas went into the tank for several minutes, at one point grabbing a few chips as if to call, but he eventually decided to fold his hand.
The next hand, Lucas re-shoved all in after Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 60,000, and Dzivielevski called. Lucas stood pat, while Dzivielevski spent a moment looking back at his hand before also deciding to pat.
Lucas showed a ten-eight, beating the jack-nine of Dzivielevski as Kelly Minkin let out a cheer from the rail.
