Barakat Putting the Pressure On
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha
With the tournament still on the bubble, Youness Barakat raised to 60,000 in the cutoff. Only Zhargal Tsydypov called from the big blind.
Tsydypov check-called a bet of 55,000 on the 10♦A♣J♠ flop, only for Barakat to fire again on the 8♣ turn. This time for a hefty 190,000, which was enough to make Tsydypov fold his hand.
