Passet Rakes a Pot; Ruijs Chipping Up
Level 3
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Abraham Passet opened from early position to 2,000 and the cutoff called. Xiaosheng Zheng then squeezed it up to 9,000 from the small blind, which both Passet and the cutoff called.
All three checked the K♣6♦9♥ flop to the 9♠ turn, where Passet fired 13,000 when the action got to him. That was enough to get the job done as both of his opponents folded.
At the same time, Dmitry Gromov and Joris Ruijs had built a pot of around 100,000 on a 4♠8♣2♠Q♠ board. Ruijs bet 21,000 on the turn from middle position, and Gromov released his hand from the button.
