Held Puts Vaskaboinikau in the Blender
Level 13
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 120,000 under the gun and Justus Held defended from the big blind.
Held check-called a bet of 80,000 from Vaskaboinikau on the 7♠3♥9♣ flop.
Held decided to lead out for 175,000 when he saw the 5♥ land on the turn. Vaskaboinikau quickly called.
A 10♠ fell on the river, and Held led out again, this time for 400,000. Vaskaboinikau, who had been acting very fast on every decision so far in the tournament, began a rare tank.
Vaskaboinikau used up around four of his time bank cards before reluctantly folding, and surrendering the pot to Held.
