Lafontaine Hits a Miracle to Stun Prusov
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Dmitrii Prusov had just fired his second bullet when he bet 3,000 under the gun in a four-way pot on a flop of 10?6?5?. Luc Lafontaine then raised to 12,500 in the cutoff and Prusov moved all in for 24,500.
Lafontaine tanked for more than a minute until he called to put Prusov at risk.
Dmitrii Prusov: A?A?
Luc Lafontaine: 10?7?
Prusov had picked up aces and was a favorite to double up, but Lafontaine spiked the 10? on the turn to make trips.
"One outer," [Removed:467], who had folded on the flop, said. The river was the 4? and Lafontaine won the pot to send Prusov to the rail again.
"I got lucky. Sometimes you need that," Lafontaine said.
