Lamb Puts the Money In
Ben Lamb opened to 27,000 but was then immediately three-bet to 114,000 by William Kopp to his left. The other players quickly got out of the way and the action was back to Lamb who made the call.
The flop came out 5♣6♦5♠ and Lamb checked to Kopp who continued for 75,000 and Lamb check-raised to 483,000.
Kopp quickly moved all in and Lamb made the call, putting himself at risk.
Ben Lamb: 10♥9♥8♦7♠
William Kopp: A♣A♥J♥10♥
Kopp was ahead with his two pair of aces and fives, but had to fade Lamb's wrap. Unfortunately for Kopp, the turn came the 7♦ which gave Lamb a straight and the river completed with the J♣ to secure his victory.
Lamb scored a big double up to 1,400,000 while Kopp was left with crumbs but has now been able to spin some of it back up to around 175,000.
