Achour Pads His Stack
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
The player in the hijack opened to 1,800 and Maher Achour three-bet to 5,100 on the button. Action folded back to the initial raiser, who called.
Both players checked on the 5♣J♣6♥ flop and then the player in the hijack check-called a 6,500 from Achour on the 8♥ turn.
The 6♠ completed the board and the hijack checked again, prompting a 13,500 from Achour. This time his opponent folded and Achour collected the pot.
