Pidhrusnyi and Van Eeden Each Get a Fold
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
In the first of two hands on Table 6, Nicolas Chouity opened to 80,000 on the button and met resistance when Vasyl Pidhrusnyi moved all-in for 870,000 from the big blind. Chouity was immediately interested in the shove, but after receiving an official count of the bet, opted to fold.
A couple of hands later, Lukas van Eeden raised to 80,000 from middle position, which only Joris Ruijs called in the cutoff.
The action checked down to a 4♦3♥3♠Q♠6♠ river, at which point Van Eeden bet 320,000. Much like Chouity before, Ruijs was interested, and even used a time extension to consider his options. Once again, though, there was no showdown, as Ruijs folded.
