Buldygin Puts Pressure on the Rest
Level 1
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Viacheslav Buldygin raised to 2,500 from the cutoff and Phil Ivey three-bet to 9,000 from the small blind. Linus Loeliger four-bet to 21,000 from the big blind for Buldygin to tank for a bit before five-betting to 44,000. Ivey folded but Loeliger made the call.
The flop came down with the 
for Loeliger to check. Buldygin bet 22,000 which was enough for Loeliger to give up on the hand.
