Tabaei Takes Another Chunk Off Bjorkheim
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Seyed Tabaei defended the big blind against the button raise of Anders Bjorkheim with the A♥J♠ and checked the 9♠9♥3♣ flop. Bjorkheim continued for 100,000 with his 6♦5♣ and Tabaei called.
After the 4♦ turn, Tabaei check-raised from 350,000 to 800,000 and Bjorkheim reluctantly called with his open-ended straight draw. They ended up checking the 4♣ on the river and Tabaei won the next seizable pot off the chip leader.
