Bakhtiev Makes his Opponent Fold
Level 2
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
After an open by the player under the gun, Ruslan Bakhtiev defended from the big blind then checked on a flop of 7♠8♦8♥. The under-the-gun player checked back.
On the 9♦ turn, Bakhtiev bet 5,500 and was called, then fired a second barrel of 11,500 on the 8♣ river.
This time, his opponent's cards went into the muck so Bakhtiev scooped the pot.
