Rivest Keeps Applying the Pressure
Level 15
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Kevin Rivest was in the cutoff and went heads-up to the 
flop with his opponent in the hijack. His opponent bet 175,000 into a pot of around 300,000 and Rivest raised to 475,000. His opponent called and the 
peeled off on the turn.
The action was checked to Rivest who fired another 1.025 million, which his opponent called. The river brought the 
and the action was checked to Rivest again. He eyed up his opponent's stack and then made a bet of 4.5 million. His opponent only had around 3.4 million remaining, thus putting his tournament life on the line should he call. He thought for over three minutes before finally electing to fold.
