Linaras Pulls Even with Lehmann
Level 36
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 100,000 ante
Sokratis Linaras opened to 2,200,000 from under the gun with J♥J♦ and Daniel Lehmann defended from the big blind with K♦2♠.
The flop came 9♥4♣2♣ and Lehmann check-called a 2,800,000 continuation bet from Linaras.
Both players checked the 10♥ turn leading to the 6♦ river. Lehmann bet 6,800,000 and Linaras quickly called with his overpair to take down a sizable pot and close the gap between himself and Lehmann.
