Kozieja Busts Former Big Stack Batayneh
Level 5
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Yilu Yuan tossed in a raise to 6,000 from the cutoff. Grzegorz Kozieja flat-called on the button before Aysar Batayneh three-bet to 21,000 from the small blind. Yuan and Kozieja both called, and the dealer fanned the A♥4♦K♣ flop.
Batayneh added a continuation-bet of 15,000 to the pot. It was enough for Yuan to fold, but Kozieja wanted to continue playing and called. Batayneh then checked the Q♦ turn, prompting Kozieja to bet 40,000.
Batayneh responded with an all-in wager worth 175,000, which Kozieja called.
Aysar Batayneh: A♦Q♣
Grzegorz Kozieja: 4♠4♣
The J♠ river meant Kozieja's set remained best, sending Batayneh to the rail.
