Boika Battles Bedell
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Aliaksei Boika sat on the button and raised to 135,000. Tom-Aksel Bedell called in the big blind, after which he check-called Boika's bet of 120,000 on the 2♠8♥9♣ flop.
The 6♣ turn was quickly checked through to the Q♠ river. Bedell checked for a third time, after which Boika piled in a hefty bet of 450,000.
Bedell did not need long to find a call, but his 9♥7♠ was not enough to win against the A♥Q♣ of Boika, who had rivered a better pair.
