Lijo and Sfez Collide
Niveau 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Eric Sfez opened to 6,000 under the gun and Lander Lijo defended his big blind.
On the 4♠8♦7♦ flop, Lijo check-called a bet of 11,500 from Sfez.
The 9♥ rolled off on the turn and Lijo changed approach, leading out with a bet of 8,000. Sfez didn't take long before producing a raise to 46,500. Lijo asked for the count and pretty quicky called.
The 5♦ rolled off on the river, and Lijo considered the spot for a bit before moving forward chips totaling 103,000. Sfez folded relatively quickly, sending a chunky pot to Lijo.
Lijo, who started the day as the smallest stack, is now just under 300,000, mounting an impressive comeback.
