Shaganov Pays Off Zeaiter
On the first hand of the day, Khossein Kokhestani raised to 110,000 in the cutoff and Alexandros Kolonias used up two of his time banks before folding on the button. The rest of the table quickly folded and Kokhestani showed the A♦.
"That's the kicker, right?" Miguel Capriles joked with him.
"I have jack-jack. I fold jack-jack for you," Leon Zeaiter added.
Kolonias then shoved the next hand for 290,000 from the cutoff and Capriles folded 5♦2♣ in the big blind. "Tight fold," Capriles said.
A few hands later, Artem Shaganov raised to 100,000 under the gun and Zeaiter called in the big blind.
The flop came Q♣9♥A♦ and Shaganov bet 75,000. Zeaiter called and they both checked the 10♥ turn.
Zeaiter then led out for 170,000 on the J♥ river and Shaganov took a minute before calling. Zeaiter showed K♣J♣ for a straight and Shaganov mucked A♠8♦.
"You like me, my friend. Thank you," Zeaiter said to the dealer.
