Gromov Knocks Out Ahuja to take Chip Lead
Level 6
: Blinds 700/1,500, 1,500 ante
Ankit Ahuja was recently eliminated in a massive pot that was won by Dmitry Gromov.
According to his former table, Ahuja three-bet a previous open to 10,000 and called a 25,000 four-bet from Gromov, forcing all other players out of the pot.
On a Jx7x9x flop with a flush draw, Ahuja check-called a 20,000 bet from Gromov to see a 5x turn that did not complete the flush. From there, Ahuja checked, Gromov bet 60,000 and Ahuja raised all in for approximately 150,000. Gromov made the call with a covering stack.
Ahuja had KxQx for a straight draw turned into a bluff while Gromov had JxJx for top set and held to take down a colossal pot. Ahuja would exercise his option to reenter shortly afterwards.
