Double Up for Lam

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

In a heads-up raised pot, the flop was {5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} when Benoit Lam checked and his opponent made a continuation bet for 2,000. Lam opted to check-raise to 6,200 and was called by his opponent.

Things heated on the {9-Hearts} turn. Lam fired 8,000 in the middle, putting his opponent into a decision. The latter ended up pushing a pile of chips in front him, covering Lam's remaining stack. The French player snap-called and they revealed their cards:

Benoit Lam: {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Opponent: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Lam already held the superior straight and took down the nice pot after the {10-Hearts} completed the board on the river.
