Emmanouilidis Takes It Down on the River
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Yianni Emmanouilidis raised to 800 from early position and received a call from a player in late position. The player in the big blind came along as well and it was three-way action to a flop of 3♠Q♠5♠.
The trio all checked and the dealer burned and turned the 7♦. The big blind checked, as did Emmanouilidis, and the late-position player bet 1,200. Both the other players called and the 7♣ paired the board on the river.
The big blind checked and Emmanouilidis paused for a few beats before betting 3,500. That did the trick as both his opponents folded.
Despite winning that pot, Emmanouilidis is down a bit from the six-figure starting stack.
