David Doubles Through Petleshkov
Viliyan Petleshkov opened 6,000 in middle position, and both Cristian David on the button and Jacques Der Megreditchian in the big blind made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♥9♠3♦, and De Megreditchian check-folded to a bet of 7,000 from Petleshkov, while David made the call.
The 8♦ hit the turn, and Petleshkov slowed down with a check. David pushed his entire stack across the line, putting Petleshkov in the tank. After asking for a count, and hearing it was 60,500, he took another couple of minutes before the clock was called. Before the floor could give him 30 seconds to act, he made the call.
Cristian David: Q♣J♣
Viliyan Petleshkov: J♠10♥
David had Petleshkov out-kicked and was able to avoid the open-ended straight as the 9♥ paired the board on the river.
