Apter Gives and Takes
Level 45
: 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Anatolii Zyrin called on the button, Brett Apter made it 1,400,000, more than four times the big blind, and Zyrin responded by shoving all in. Apter had about a quarter of his stack in the middle already and gave it ample thought. After nearly two minutes, he decided to lay it down and leave it to his Russian adversary.
In the next hand, another pot without preflop raise, it got checked to the turn on 
. Zyrin bet 375,000 and Apter called.
The river was the 
and Zyrin check-folded to a 1,600,000 bet from Apter. Apter rail's erupted in a cheer and not for the first time today, Zyrin cheered along with Apter's rail and gave them a thumbs up to keep the good vibe in the room going.
