Gromov Gets Rid of Kings
Level 5
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Tamazi Skhirtladze open-raised to 6,000 in middle position. Yassin Mahmoud then three-bet to 19,000 from the hijack, and Dmitry Gromov four-bet to 55,000 in the cutoff.
Skhirtladze quickly mucked, but Mahmoud bought a flop with a call. He then checked 9♥8♥A♥ over to Gromov, who continued for 25,000. Mahmoud raised to 75,000, sending Gromov into the tank.
After about a minute, Gromov announced a fold and showed K♠K♣. Mahmoud kindly tabled 9♠9♣ for a set, dragging the pot as he did so.
