Xanthopoulos Moving Into Contention
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
There were three players at the flop of 5♦3♦3♥, with 13,000 in the middle. Pavlos Xanthopoulos bet 3,500 from the cutoff and was called by John Bousfield in early positon and the middle position player folded.
Xanthopoulos continued on the J♥ turn for 6,000 which was enough to get Bousfield to fold. Xanthopoulos is looking to secure their second WSOP Bracelet after picking one up at the 2015 World Series of Poker Europe.
