Khalil Makes a Hero Call
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
On a board of 6♣3♥2♠K♣, Ghassan Khalil check-called a bet of 17,500 from Vadzim Lipauka, who was on the button.
A 2♦ on the river paired the board and after Khalil checked, Lipauka shoved. Khalil had around 33,000 behind and after some thinking, he dropped in the call.
Lipauka sheepishly flipped J♦9♦ for a bluff, and Khalil rolled over A♥5♥ for just ace-high to take the pot.
