Pilhofer Pays Off Lehner
Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Stefan Lehner and Istvan Pilhofer went heads-up to a flop of 2?4?4? with around 30,000 in the pot when Lehner bet 11,800 in the hijack.
Pilhofer called in the cutoff and the 8? fell on the turn. Both players checked to the 7? river, where Lehner moved all in for 53,000.
Pilhofer agonized over the decision for around two minutes before cutting out the chips to call and throwing them in the middle. Lehner then showed K?K? and Pilhofer flashed two nines before mucking as the WSOP bracelet winner doubled up.
