Oikonomou Gets Hero'd
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Niklas Astedt made a raise to 1,200 under the gun and was called by Markus Lehner in the seat next to him. Panagiotis Oikonomou three-bet to 2,600 in the hijack, receiving two callers.
The 2?8?4? flop was checked to him. He bet 6,000, folding out Astedt's K?Q? and stringing Lehner along to a 9? turn. That turn was quickly checked through, leading to the 7? river emerging from the deck.
Lehner checked to Oikonomou for a third time. He tossed out a hefty bet of 11,000, which Lehner quickly called. Oikonomou opened J?J? for an overpair.
Lehner had tried to play the hero with his 3?3? but swiftly added his cards to the muck, surrendering a portion of his large stack to Oikonomou, who chipped back up to nearly one starting stack.
