Alexander Lynskey Proceeds With Caution

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Alexander Lynskey raised to 50,000 from middle position and was called by the big blind. The flop came {A-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, and the action was checked around. The turn was the {9-Hearts}, and the big blind bet 94,000. Lynskey called, and the {3-Diamonds} landed on the river.

His opponent bet again for 140,000, leaving only 10,000 behind, and Lynskey called. His opponent showed {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for two pair, but Lynskey tabled {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a bigger two pair. Lynskey took a cautious approach to the hand, and it worked out in his favor.
