Bansal Flops Set to Ascend Further
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Paawan Bansal opened 7♠7♥ to 160,000 as first to act. Matan Krakow wanted to see a flop with A♥2♥ and called on the button, and Traian Stanciu defended A♦7♦ in the big blind.
The trio checked through the J♦10♦7♣ flop. Stanciu checked again on the 6♥ turn, prompting Bansal to bet 225,000. Krakow quickly moved out of the way, but Stanciu called.
The 9♥ river saw Bansal size up to 1,100,000, and Stanciu quickly mucked his pair of sevens.
