Hissou's Hero Call Doesn't Get Rewarded
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Sirzat Hissou and Atanas Malinov built a pot of around 40,000 as they went blind-versus-blind to a flop of 7♣2♣4♦. Hissou then bet 12,000 and Malinov moved all in for 68,000. Hissou burned through four time banks before he called.
Atanas Malinov: K♣Q♣
Sirzat Hissou: A♦Q♦
Hissou found himself ahead with ace-high, but he needed to dodge Malinov's flush draw. The K♦ fell on the turn and Malinov spiked a pair to take the lead, while the 3♠ completed the board to earn Malinov a double up.
Dimitar Danchev was eliminated shortly after losing most of his stack to Quan Zhou, while Steve O'Dwyer was also knocked out.
