Betito Picks Off Ruban
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
In a blind versus blind battle, Ivan Ruban bet 525,000 on a board of Q♥4♣7♣J♦ and Liran Betito called.
The river came the 9♥ and Ruban again led out, this time for 1,800,000. Betito immediately started shaking his head while he gave the decision some thought, but he eventually decided to call.
Ruban showed 8♣5♣, having missed both straight and flush draws, and Betito slammed down Q♠9♦ for two pair to take the big pot.
