Boujenah Put to the Test

Fraser MacIntyre mentioned earlier that he was going to be looking to get involved in pots against Ilan Boujenah, and we just picked one up between them.

It was Boujenah who opened to 80,000 under the gun, and MacIntyre came along from the button. They were heads-up as the dealer spread out {8-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} . Boujenah bet 105,000 rather quickly, MacIntyre called just as quickly, and the {Q-Spades} hit the turn. Check-check this time.

The river brought the {A-Hearts} . Boujenah sprang back into action with a bet of 225,000, but it was not going to work. MacIntyre received the little red triangle from the dealer as he announced, "All in," and Boujenah dropped a couple inches in his chair. He had just over a half-million chips left in front of him, and he'd been put to the decision for that remainder. Maybe five or six minutes later, he finally found a fold, and he's now down into the danger zone with just about 13bb.
