Boika Doesn't Buy Over-Bet
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Aliaksei Boika raised his small blind to 300,000 with. Adria Calonge called in the big blind, after which the pair checked through the 6♠7♥10♣ flop.
Boika continued knuckling the table on the Q♦ turn, and Calogne followed suit again. After the 6♣ river completed the board, Boika checked for a third time.
Calonge veered from the previous course and slid in a massive bet of 850,000. Boika gave his hand some serious thought, burning through four time banks before he finally decided to call.
Calonge had been caught bluffing with J♣9♠. Boika triumphantly tabled A♦J♦ for a hero-call with ace-high, winning the pot to overtake Calonge in the counts.
