Refos Jams on the River

Level 7 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The {a-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{k-Hearts} board was already on the table when Raoul Refos called a bet of 160,000 out of the under-the-gun position. The player that made the bet was Georgy Philippovic from the big blind.

The river was the {8-Diamonds} and Philippovic bet 350,000. Refos raised all in without having to use a time bank card and the shove was for 760,000.

Philippovic used up his two remaining time bank cards before his time ran out and he had to fold his hand.
