Lepovic Hero-Calls Correctly With Ace-High
Level 39
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Elan Lepovic raised to 3,000,000 with the A♣8♣ on the button and was called by Brett Lim with the K♠3♦. Both checked the 4♠2♠2♦ and did so again on the 9♥ turn. Lim then bet the 7♦ river for 3,000,000 and Lepovic called to get some chips back after his previous two big lay downs.
Lim joked that he can't win any showdowns against Lepovic to his wife and daughter on the rail after this hand.
In the next hand, Lim removed all other options and simply jammed the button with the A♠4♣. Lepovic in the big blind had the marginally better A♥5♣, but elected to fold.
