Ketzer Three-Bets Yan, Yan Three-Bets Ketzer

Level 9 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 12,000 and David Yan called in the cutoff before Felipe Ketzer three-bet to 55,000 in the small blind. Vaskaboinikau folded, but Yan called after using up a time bank.

The flop came 6Q2 and Ketzer stuck in a pile of chips. Yan snap-folded before even confirming the amount.

A few hands later, Ketzer raised to 12,000 under the gun, then folded to a three-bet by Yan to 42,000 out of the small blind.
