Bansal Doesn't Back Down

Laura Fryer

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Paawan Bansal opened to 25,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Farbod Nazari in the big blind, who called.

The 3♠4♣9♥ flop was checked by both to the 7♣ turn. Nazari bet 25,000, and Bansal called, taking the players to the Q♦ river.

Nazari checked, and Bansal asked for 85,000. Nazari took some time before mucking his hand, passing the pot to his neighbor.
