Mahmoud Takes a Small One

Ryan Lashmar

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Timothy Friese opened to 40,000 from early position and Yassin Mahmoud defended from the big blind.

The flop came A♣4♠5♣ and Mahmoud check-called a 30,000 continuation bet from Friese.

Both players checked the 10♦ turn leading to the 2♦ river. Mahmoud bet 60,000 and Friese quickly mucked his hand.
