Henrik Lanz raises to 11,000 in the cutoff, partypoker qualifier Alexandru Baron (pictured) calls on the button, and David Graves reraises to 43,000 out of the big blind.
Lanz four-bets to 103,000, then Baron calls all-in for his 96,500-chip stack. The action does not stop there. Graves then announces he is all-in for around 350,000, which has Lanz covered.
Lanz, who has 242,500 behind, thinks for a minute or two, then decides to call.
It is quite the cooler of a hand, as Baron has the best of it with and Graves is flipping for his tournament life with to Lanz’s .
The board changes nothing and Baron gets the big double, Lanz still comes out of the hand profitable, and Graves loses a big chunk of his stack.
Alexandru Baron – 295,000 (59 bb)
Henrik Lanz – 465,000 (93 bb)
David Graves – 113,000 (23 bb)
