Pierce Doubles Up Through Lanese
Niveau 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action was picked up on the turn in a massive pot that had grown on the flop between John Lanese in the big blind and Shane Pierce from under the gun.
With a board reading 4♠5♦8♠ and a turn of a 10♥ peeling off, Lanese moved all in for 60,500 effective and Pierce called.
Shane Pierce: 10♥10♠
John Lanese: A♣3♣
The river K♣ changed nothing as Pierce took down the pot.
At another table, WSOP bracelet winner Billy Kopp joined his sister and fellow WSOP bracelet winner Katie Kopp in the field.
