Lebedev Makes Tough Call on River
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Sergey Lebedev raised to 55,000 from the button and Masashi Oya three-bet to 180,000 from the small blind, which Lebedev called.
The flop came 2?6?Q?. Oya continued for 225,000 and Lebedev called. Both players then checked it back on the 4? turn.
The river was the 5?. Oya put out a large bet of 270,000, sending Lebedev into the tank. He eventually flicked in a chip to make the call. Oya showed K?J? for a bluff and Lebedev had 9?9? for a pair of nines, making the hero call to chip up to around 3,000,000.
