Lijo Picks Right Time to Three-Bet
Nivel 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Artsiom Lasouski raised to 50,000 in the cutoff. Chakib Mhiri flat-called on the button before Lander Lijo made it 225,000 to go in the small blind. Lasouski quickly got rid of his 7♠5♠ but Mhiri put Lijo all-in for 840,000.
Lijo snap called and a showdown was ordered.
Lander Lijo: K♥K♦ 
Chakib Mhiri: J♠J♦
Lijo took an even more commanding lead on the 8♥K♠9♣ flop, and his set had Mhiri's jacks drawing dead on the 3♠ turn. The 8♣ river was rendered meaningless as Lijo doubled up and overtook Mhiri in the counts.
