State & Ladva Tangle
Level 15
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
As the cards were being dealt, Mikalai Vaskaboinikau, who was sitting in the big blind, announced the table, "99.9% big blind defence".
Ottomar Ladva raised to 60,000 out of the hijack and Adrian State called from the cutoff. Vaskaboinikau immediately folded when it got to him in the big blind.
Ladva bet 70,000 on the 4♣10♦5♠ flop, which State called.
Ladva fired again on the Q♥ turn, this time for 150,000. Again, State called.
The 9♠ river checked down and Ladva turned over 7♦5♦ for a pair of fives. State tabled J♥10♥ for a pair of tens and he was given the pot.
