Tollefsen’s Tens Hurt Lei


We caught up with a board of 4 7 10 6 K in Chee Hoong Lai’s and Henrik Tollefsen’s table. The two were embroiled in raising wars before the river came and on the last street the latter bet a big 6,400 into the already big pot.

With just around 18,000 behind, Lai considered his options very hard. If he made the call and lost, he’d be left with just around 11K.

Lai tanked and then tanked some more until one player called time on the Malaysian… Lai would eventually call and was shown the bad news: Toffelsen’s set of tens.
