Laidlaw Gets Three Streets
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Thomas Santerne raised to 6,000 from the hijack and Dan Laidlaw defended in the big blind.
Laidlaw checked at the sight of the 2?3?K? flop. Santerne continued for 4,500 and Laidlaw check-raised to 15,000. Santerne called.
The Q? turn saw Laidlaw size up to 22,000. Santerne called again.
The river landed the 8? and Laidlaw placed a bet of 65,000, leaving himself just 1,000 behind the line. Santerne remained in the tank for some time before finally making the call. Laidlaw tabled K?Q? for two pair; good enough to win this pot.
