Aziz Leads the Flop
Level 4
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Marcelo Aziz raised to 6,500 from under the gun before Viacheslav Balaev three-bet to 18,000 from the cutoff. The action returned to Aziz, who called.
The dealer spread a 5♦6♦8♣ flop, and Aziz decided to take over the betting lead. He put 13,500 into the middle, which was enough to claim the pot, as Balaev returned his cards to the dealer.
