Bezhanyan Makes a Big Fold as Vyborov Opens Massive Lead
Level 27
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Artur Vyborov raised to 500,000 on the button with 9♦8♠6♠5♠ and Aren Bezhanyan called in the small blind holding A♦J♣10♦9♣, while Quan Zhou also defended K♥6♣5♣4♥.
The flop came 9♠8♣4♣ and Vyborov continued for 1,000,000 with top two pair. Bezhanyan called with his pair and draws, while Zhou got out of the way.
Both players checked the 9♥ turn, and the 7♠ fell on the river. Bezhanyan made his straight and led out for 1,700,000. Vyborov, sitting with the nuts, used a time bank before raising to 4,600,000.
Bezhanyan went deep into the tank, burning through multiple time banks over several minutes before giving up his hand. Vyborov showed him his 6♠5♠ while he took the big pot.
