Tsouloftas Makes Hero Call as Sheth Bluffs It Off in Huge Pot
Georgios Tsouloftas raised to 160,000 from middle position and Ravi Sheth made it 730,000 to go from the small blind. Tsouloftas made the sizable call and both players went on to check the J♦3♣5♥ flop.
Sheth checked again on the 7♦ turn, after which Tsouloftas made a bet of 500,000. Sheth then pumped it up to 1,420,000 and Tsouloftas put in the extra required chips for a call.
On the 8♦ river, Sheth sized up to 1,700,000, leaving only 300,000 chips behind. Tsouloftas thought about the situation for a while before eventually calling, creating the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
"You're good," Sheth repeated a few times before Tsouloftas tabled J♣10♣ for a weak top pair. Sheth's cards indeed hit the muck and Tsouloftas raked in the pot to get him to a stack worth triple the average one.
