Ved Spikes to Survive
Level 15
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Matthew Hunt opened to 6,000 from middle position, Selles Meijse three-bet to 16,000 in the cutoff, and Kartik Ved four-bet jammed for 35,000 in the small blind. Hunt folded and Meijse called.
Kartik Ved: 8♠8♥
Selles Meijse: 10♥10♦
The J♣7♥4♦ flop kept the tens ahead and Ved got up from his seat as the 5♥ turn gave him straight outs. The 6♥ hit the felt on the river and Ved made a straight to survive.
