Aysar Ahead, Behind, Settles for Split
Level 8
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
"Aysar Aysar" had a huge bet of 240,000 in the middle preflop after players had raised and reraised. The small and big blind folded, then the under the gun player called.
The flop came 5♥7♠6♥ and the under the gun player checked. Aysar pushed all in for his remaining 320,000 chips. His opponent called. Aysar had Q♠Q♥ for an overpair. The under the gun player had 3♥3♠ and was badly behind.
The turn came the 3♦ and the under the gun player made a set of threes, much to Aysar's dismay. The river, however, was the 4♦, putting a straight on the board for the chop.
"Why did you call with threes?" asked Aysar loudly. "You have big balls!"
