Balaev Wastes No Time
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Daniel Razaei raised to 6,000 on the button and met immediate resistance from Viacheslav Balaev, who had only just taken his seat in the tournament.
Balaev three-bet to 32,000 from the small blind, which Razaei called.
The action checked through on a Q♠4♠10♠ flop, and the 2♦ turn was revealed.
This time, Balaev placed a bet of 25,000, which Rezaei called.
Balaev checked over to Rezaei on the 9♦ river, who put a bet of 67,000 into the middle. Balaev wasted little time in folding, conceding the pot to his neighbour.
