Big Double Up For Lappas

On the very next hand Tomasz Kozub raised under the gun with :::Ad:::Qh to 80,000 and the action folded to Mike Hill on the button with :::Td:::Tc.

Hill made the call in position and Lappas called from the big blind with :::9s:::8c.

The flop brought out :::9c:::7s:::Qs and Lappas checked to Kozub who bet 150,000 and Hill gave up his big pair. Lappas gave it some thought before he ultimately check-raised to 350,000. Kozub moved all in and Lappas made the call to create a pot of 1.6 million chips.

The turn was the :::8c and Lappas hit two pair, the river was the :::Jh and Lappas doubled up. Kozub dropped back down to 650,000 chips and play continued nine-handed.
