Brechalov Opening Up Gap On The Field
Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Iurii Brechalov caught fire recently, returning from the break and almost doubling his already big stack. In the latest hand he had raised from the cutoff to 6,000 chips and got a call from Anatoly Nikitin in the big blind.
The flop came down ![]()
![]()
and Brechalov bet 6,000 like his name was Rob Salaburu. Nikitin made the call.
They saw a
turn and once again, Brechalov bet very quickly, this time to 18,000. Nikitin didn't waste much time mucking his holding, awarding another pot the Russian's way.
The amount of players making Day 2 will be announced shortly.
