Bura Gets There on the River
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Around 4,000 was in the pot in a blind versus blind battle between Maksim Bura and Ibrahim Aksu with the board showing Q♦2♣3♦J♣. Bura then led out for 3,000 and Aksu called.
The river was the 10♦ and Bura bet another 7,500. Aksu quickly called and Bura turned over A♦K♣ for a rivered straight. Aksu buried his head in his hands before mucking as he surrendered nearly half of his stack on one of the first hands of the day.
