Pak Squeezes River Value, Tabac Left Short
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Mihai Tabac limped in from the small blind, and when Edward Pak raised to 65,000 in the big blind, Tabac called.
Tabac checked to Pak on a 6♣J♦2♠ flop, and Pak continued for 40,000, which Tabac called. The A♥ turn followed the same sequence, as Tabac checked before calling when Pak bet again, this time for 115,000.
The 6♠ completed the board, and Tabac checked a third time. Pak wasn't done betting quite yet, though, and put 120,000 into the middle. Tabac went deep into the tank, utilising four time extensions before ultimately calling. Pak flipped over A♦8♦ for a turned top pair, and Tabac immediately tossed his cards into the muck.
