Andrade Strikes First
Level 27
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Kayhan Mokri limped on the button with 8♣5♥, and Gabriel Andrade checked his big blind option holding Q♦3♣.
Andrade checked his pair on the 9♣7♥3♥ flop, making the call when Mokri fired a bet of 450,000.
The Q♠ turn gave Andrade two pair, and he checked again. Mokri continued for 1,500,000, and Andrade took some time before raising to 3,700,000.
That produced a fold from Mokri, and Andrade struck first in heads-up play.
