Pyzara, Guimond Slow Down on the River
Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante
Kacper Pyzara bet 8,000 from the big blind on a flop of 3♥4♠2♥ and an opponent under the gun called. Florian Guimond then raised to 40,000 in the small blind and only Pyzara called.
The turn was the 9♣ and Guimond bet 90,000. Pyzara again called to the J♥ river.
Guimond slowed down and checked, and Pyzara quickly checked back. Guimond turned over 3♦3♣ for a set, but Pyzara had 4♥4♣ for a higher set to take the pot.
At the same time at another table, Benjamin Hamnett eliminated Pavel Shchitnikov when Shchitnikov got his short stack all in with K♥Q♥ but couldn't beat Hamnett's A♥10♠ on a board of 9♣6♦A♠2♣2♥.
