Big Stacks Aygun and Skhulukhiya Slow Down
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Aksel Aygun, Giorgiy Skhulukhiya, and Zaid Noori built a three-way pot of around 50,000 heading to the A♥10♦8♣ flop where Skhulukhiya bet 15,000 from the button.
Aygun called in the hijack, while Noori got out of the way from the cutoff. The turn came the J♠ and Aygun checked again. Skhulukhiya slowed down and checked back to the 8♠ river.
Both players again checked. "Straight," Aygun said, showing K♥Q♥. Skhulukhiya angrily flung his cards into the middle of the table as Aygun took the pot.
