Big Stacks Butt Heads

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

I’m not sure whether the cards the players held were relevant in the hand that just happened on Table 5 as two big stacks tried to out manou. Seyed Ghavam opened for 1,200 and the only caller was Asaf Avci who defended his big blind.

The flop fell {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. Both players checked. The turn card was the {9-Diamonds}. Avi led for 2,000 and was raised to 5,000 by Ghavam. Avi made the call. The river was the {2-Diamonds}. Avi checked and Ghavam sent a message with a bet of 15,000. It was a language Avi understood and he folded.
