Ruefenacht Makes the Fifth Bet

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Pascal Ruefenacht was under the gun and had a single T-5,000 chip in front of him for a raise to an unknown amount, and Daniel Kysoev put in the same chip for a call. Antonino Venneri then made it 8,000 to go from cutoff before Georgios Karakousis put in the cold four-bet to 20,000 from the big blind for his entire stack.

Ruefenacht followed up with a five-bet jam for 41,200 and everyone else folded after some deliberation.

Georgios Karakousis: A10
Pascal Ruefenacht: QQ

Karakousis was at risk with the worse hand but that all changed on the 8A6 flop. No queen was seen on the J6 runout, and Karakousis, who is on his third bullet, more than doubled up.
