Budai Starts Off Strong
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Dzmitry Budai opened to 5,000 in the hijack, being met with a three-bet to 18,000 by Vladislav Dubanov on the button. Budai then made it 51,000 to go, which Dubanov called.
Budai fired a bet of 26,000 on the 9♣3♦2♥ flop, which Dubanov quickly called. The 3♣ turn was a tougher decision for Dubanov, who spent one time bank before folding to Budai's bet of 85,000.
