Lapido Fills Up to Take Big Pot Off Geilich

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Ludovic Geilich opened to 160,000 from middle position before Juan Maceiras Lapido three-bet to 575,000 from late position. Action folded back around to Geilich who made the call to send action heads-up to the flop.

Geilich checked to Lapido following the K?K?6? flop and he continued for 700,000. After some thought, Geilich called.

The 8? turn saw Geilich check for a second time. Lapido, unwilling to slow down, pushed a hefty 1,200,000 into the middle. As on the previous street, Geilich committed calling chips.

Both players checked once the 8? river completed the board with Geilich turning over 10?10?. It was no good, however, as Lapido held 6?6? for the flopped boat to take down a sizable pot.
