Novak Wins Big Pot Early On

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

Picking up the action on the {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop, Nicola Grieco and Stephen Chidwick in the blinds both checked. Andrey Novak bet 1,150 and both opponents called. On the {10-Clubs} turn, once again the action checked to Novak, who bet 3,850. While Grieco quickly folded, Chidwick had other plans and check-raised to 15,000.

Novak used one time bank extension in level one already and called with five seconds left. The {9-Clubs} on the river was checked through and Novak claimed a big pot early on with the {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.
