Small Bet Does Not Work Out for Novikovs
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
A sizable pot of 30,000 was between Genadijs Novikovs under the gun and Steffen Gjelseth in middle position, along with a completed board of 6♥5♥3♣A♠9♦.
Novikovs opted to bet 4,000, only to be raised to 16,000 by Gjelseth. Novikovs relinquished his cards after some thought, surrendering the pot to his opponent.
