Chernikov Bluffs Korhs in Three-Bet Pot
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Aleksandr Chernikov limped in from middle position. Hadi Khordbin then raised to 7,000 in the cutoff, and Mahmoud Bedoui flat-called on the button.
Small blind Vitalijs Korhs upped the ante further with a three-bet to 28,000, but only Chernikov came along to the 8♠A♣10♣ flop.
Korhs continued with a bet of 22,000, and he sized up to 40,000 on the K♠ turn once Chernikov had called. Chernikov tossed in more calling chips, revealing the K♦ on the river.
Korhs slowed down with a check, allowing Chernikov to bet 76,000. Korhs eventually added his cards to the muck, and Chernikov dragged the pot while showing he played the board with 4♣3♣.
