Tot Gets Paid by Peluso
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With around 200,000 in the middle on a flop of 6♥Q♠Q♣, Aleksandr Tot bet 20,000 from the big blind and Fabio Peluso called in the cutoff.
The turn was the 9♦ and Tot led out for another 120,000. Peluso called again and the J♠ fell on the river.
Tot sat motionless for nearly a minute before putting out a bet of 50,000. Peluso quickly called, then mucked when Tot showed K♥K♠.
At the same time at an adjacent table, Volodymyr Drokin was all in with a short stack against Ara Melkisetian.
Volodymyr Drokin: A♥Q♣
Ara Melkisetian: J♦J♥
The board ran out 8♣4♦5♦5♥6♣ and Melkisetian took the pot to send Drokin to the rail. Maroun Jazzar soon joined him as he was eliminated by Azamat Tulepbergenov at another table.
