Angelov Bluffs Off a Bunch

Vyacheslav Kardash open-raised to 6,000 from middle position, and Ping Liu called in the hijack. Boris Angelov then defended his big blind, and the trio subsequently checked through the Q♦K♠6♥ flop.

Angelov also checked the 10♦ turn, after which Kardash bet 9,000. Liu quickly folded, but Angelov dropped a sizable raise to 45,000 on the table. Kardash called, and the 3♥ river completed the board.

Angelov fired again, sizing up to 130,000. Kardash took some time to think, then called.

"You're good," Angelov assured his opponent. He showed 9♦4♦ for a bricked flush draw, and Karadash raked in the chips with K♦J♠ for top pair.
