Music to Bozkurt's Ears
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Carl Shaw raised it up on the button and Ekrem Bozkurt three-bet to 80,000 from the small blind. Shaw just called and the flop of J♥5♦4♥ hit the felt. Bozkurt led out with a bet of 60,000 and Shaw raised to 180,000, which Bozkurt called.
The 4♠ paired the board on the turn and both players checked to the 5♠ on the river. Bozkurt put together a bet of 225,000 but Shaw instantly sent his cards to the muck.
"Music to your ears when he raised," one player suggested after Bozkurt quickly flashed his JxJx to the table.
