Lawrie Inman Eliminated in 8th Place (£8,800)

UO_London_2014_Tambet_Kask_ME_Final_Table-6.jpgIaron Lightbourne raised to 105,000 and Lawrie Inman three-bet to 250,000 from his immediate left. The action folded back to Lightbourne and he made the call to create heads up action.

Lightbourne held :::7d:::8d and was looking for lots of help against Inman’s :::Ks:::Kd. The flop brought out :::Kh:::5d:::6d and both players hit the virtual nuts with their holding.

Lightbourne checked to Inman who bet 250,000 and Lightbourne moved all in. Inman called right away and the showdown went as following.

The pot was worth 2.7 million chips and Lightbourne had 40% equity despite not having a pair against Inman’s set of kings. On the turn the :::Qs hit and Inman was safe, but the river was the :::9h and Inman was knocked out in eighth place.
