Lehmann Gets Paid With the Nuts
Thomas Santerne opened to 800 under the gun and was faced with a three-bet to 2,300 by Manfred Lehmann in the next seat. Action folded to Tobias Peters in the small blind, who pondered the position for a moment and cold-called. Santerne also called.
On the K?Q?5? flop, action was checked to Lehmann, who slid out a bet of 3,100. Peters called and Santerne folded.
The 10? rolled off on the turn, completing the one-card flush, and Peters check-called a bet of 3,100 from Lehmann, asking "Do you think there will be another spade on the river?" as he did so.
The 2? completed the board and Peters checked once more. Lehmann quickly fired out a bet of 5,200 and Peters said "If you have it, you have it", as he flicked in calling chips.
Lehmann did indeed have it as he showed A?A? for the nut flush, causing Peters to muck his hand, and sending a chunky early pot to Lehmann.
