Zobian Forces Harsh Decision on Bartholdi

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 240 ante
Aram Zobian
Aram Zobian

Aram "X69Podheiser" Zobian raised to 5,575 preflop from middle position. It folded to Joseph "MelonHead" Bartholdi in the small blind who made a beefy three-bet to 19,000 and Zobian called.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{a-Hearts}, Zobian bet 1/10th of the pot with a small 4,250 bet. Bartholdi raised to 13,300 and Zobian called methodically.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and both players slowed down by checking.

The river came the {9-Clubs}. Bartholdi checked and Zobian made a quick pot sized bet of 69,160, which was plenty enough to put the remaining 48,168 of Bartholdi at risk who went into a deep tank before eventually folding and ceding the karge pot to Zobian.
