Laying Down the Lawrence

[user46298]

Vicky Coren, whose stack appears just over half its original incarnation after the first break (although I haven't seen her lose any huge confrontations, there may well have been one somewhere along the line), just lost a pot to David Lawrence. She raised preflop to 1,700 (blinds now 300/600/75) and picked Lawrence up as a big blind caller.

Flop: {J-Hearts}

Both players checked.
Turn: {6-Spades}

Now a small bet from Lawrence, called by Coren.
River: {3-Diamonds}

Lawrence speedily threw in a 5,000 chip, and after a pause, Coren matched it.

Lawrence showed the turned set: {6-Hearts}

and she tapped the table and gave up the pot.

Incidentally, Vicky's lovely blonde hair isn't the only barnet of the sort on that table - she's two seats to the right of Jani Sointula.
