Furman Picks Off Sheth With Aces
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Ravi Sheth open-raised to 2,500 from the cutoff, Oleg Furman three-bet to 8,500 from the big blind and Sheth called. Both players then checked it back on the 9♥5♠6♠ flop.
The turn came the J♦ and Furman led out for 10,000. Sheth moved all in and Furman snap-called for 31,500 total.
Sheth had A♦8♠ for a bluff with a gutshot straight draw, while Furman flipped over A♥A♠ for pocket aces.
The river came the 10♣ and Furman held to win the pot, eliminating Sheth from the flight.
