Lehner Exerting Max Pressure
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
In a blind-on-blind battle, Nicholas Verderamo limped in from the small blind, and Stefan Lehner checked his option from the big blind. The flop arrived with 4♥Q♦K♠, and Verderamo checked, while Lehner bet out 60,000. Verderamo called.
On the turn K♣, Verderamo checked again, and Lehner bet out 275,000. Verderamo called.
The river 6♠ saw Verderamo check again to the aggressor, who moved all in for effective 720,000.
Verderamo took a considerable amount of time to decide and ultimately folded to save his tournament life for another battle.
