Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Picking up the action on a 6♠3♠5♠ flop, Yurii Zabrodotskyi bet 25,000 under the gun, and Raul Mestre raised to 85,000 in the hijack. Zabrodotskyi called to the 7♥ turn, which both players checked.
Zabrodostkyi then made a gargantuan shove of 615,000 when the 10♣ river appeared, a bet worth around three times the pot. Mestre went deep into the tank, talking to himself while agonizing over his decision.
Eventually, he slammed in a tower of chips to call. Zabrodotskyi could only show ace-high with A♠9♣, and Mestre let out a sigh of relief as he triumphantly showed 4♠4♥ for a straight.
Zabrodotskyi hurried out of the tournament area, while Mestre stacked up his new chips and retook his lead over the rest of the field.
