Soika vs. Thomas

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Ihar Soika opened for 500 under the gun and was met by a three-bet to 1,600 by Russell Thomas in middle position. Action folded back to Soika, and he called to see a flop of {8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Soika check-called a bet of 1,900, and then checked when the {5-Hearts} appeared on the turn.

Thomas bet again, this time 4,100, and it did the trick as Soika released his hand after about 30 seconds of thought.
