button in SafariJu Drags Four-Way Pot; Vazquez Dazzles Dizy
Mehdi Chaoui made it 5,000 to go under the gun. Nikita Kuznetsov flat-called in the cutoff, and Samuel Ju and Osman Aksu did so in the blinds. The quartet then checked through the J♥2♣7♣ flop, after which Ju bet 5,000 on the 5♠ turn.
Aksu and Chaoui quickly folded, but Kuznetsov had other plans and raised to 17,500. Ju called to the 7♠ river, where the players checked it to showdown. Ju tabled K♦5♦ and won the pot when Kuznetsov tapped the table and mucked his hand.
At an adjacent table, Alejandro Vazquez and Dorian Dizy had gathered a pot of 95,000 when Vazquez bet 23,000 on the Q♦J♥5♠2♣ turn from middle position.
Dizy called on the button, but folded when Vazquez shoved all in for 67,500 on the 7♥ river. Dizy accidentally flipped over his A♥K♦, and Vazquez won the pot without showing his cards.
