Ketzer Picks Off Akopyan's Bluff
Level 2
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Felipe Ketzer raised to 13,000 under the gun and received four callers, including Sarkis Akopyan and Aleksandr Chernikov out of the blinds.
After it checked to Ketzer on the K♠7♣2♣ flop, he fired a continuation-bet of 26,000. Only Akopyan called from the small blind, and Chernikov from the big blind.
Three-ways to the 5♣ turn which checked through for the 9♥ to land on the river. Akopyan led out for 75,000 and Chernikov quickly got out the way. Ketzer thought about his options for a little while, before throwing in the call. Akopyan showed Ax2x, and lost the pot to Ketzer's 2♦2♥ for a set of deuces.
