Bottom Pair Good for Lakhov
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Miika Toyras opened from the hijack to 1,200. Action folded to Aleksandr Lakhov in the big blind who defended.
The flop of 8?J?9? was checked by both players, as was the 6? turn.
Lakhov then led the 2? river for 500, before saying "don't reraise me, just call or fold." Toyras opted to muck his holding and Lakhov tabled the 2? and slid the other card face down into the muck.
