Nebezhev Gets There on the River For Massive Double
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Khazret Nebezhev raised to 125,000 from the hijack and Joao Sydenstricker called in the big blind.
The flop came Q♠4♦7♠ and Nebezhev continued for 100,000. Sydenstricker then raised to 325,000 and Nebezhev quickly called.
Sydenstricker led out for 240,000 on the 5♦ turn and Nebezhev again called. The river came the J♦ and Sydenstricker, nearly covering his entire face with the collar of his red sweater, used three time bank cards before betting 1,500,000.
Nebezhev called all in for his last 1,195,000 and Sydenstricker was forced to show K♦6♠ for a bluff. Nebezhev turned over A♦8♦ for a rivered flush as he doubled up.
"I told you never bluff," Nebezhev told Sydenstricker.
