Mustafov's Check-Jam Puts Shimizu in the Tank
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Steve O'Dwyer opened 2,500 under the gun, and Fahredin Mustafov called before Nozomu Shimizu three-bet to 12,000. O'Dwyer folded, but Mustafov made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of 10♣6♥4♥, and Mustafov check-called a bet of 8,000 from Shimizu.
When the J♥ fell on the turn, Mustafov checked once again before Shimizu fired 30,000. Mustafov check-raised all in for 63,000 and Shimizu went into the tank for over a minute, using two time banks. Eventually, he made the fold.
