Defending Champ Folds on River
Level 3
: Blinds 700/1,400, 140 ante
Last year, "jokkee_apart" emerged victorious in the highest buy-in PLO tournament of the WCOOP series. They have appeared in today's field, seeking to defend their title.
They opened to 4,900. Directly on their left, Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski, made the call, before "boerni21", the big blind, made it 20,300. Both players called.
On the A♠3♠3♦ flop, "boerni21" continued their aggression, firing out 6,300, and getting calls from both players. On the 6♦ turn, "boerni21" sized up to 34,104. "jokkee_apart" made the call while Dzivielevski got out of the way.
On the 3♣ river, "boerni21" fired yet again, this time for the pot, a bet worth 149,408. The defending champ surrendered their hand, conceding the pot to "boerni21"
