Bezhanyan and Byrraju Both Make a Boat
Level 22
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Aren Bezhanyan picked up A♥A♦ from early position and raised to 325,000. Rahul Byrraju was in the big blind with 4♥4♣ and flicked in the call.
On the 5♥Q♠6♥ flop, Byrraju checked and Bezhanyan bet 375,000. Byrraju called to the Q♣ turn, where both checked. Another queen, the Q♥, hit the river and Byrraju used some extra time before he bet 400,000 with his boat.
Bezhanyan, with the bigger full house, also used some extra time while he pondered how to proceed, then stuck in a raise to 975,000. Byrraju went into the tank and eventually settled on a fold.
