Level 2
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Pavels Spirins raised from late position to 2,500 only to see Muhammad Abdel Rahim three-bet from the cutoff to 9,500. Nick Maimone on the button then four-bet to 20,000. Spirins then pushed out a five-bet to 45,000. Rahim folded, and Maimone called.
The flop came 8♦2♠9♦, and Spirins continued for 13,500, Maimone called. The turn brought the 4♦ and now Spirins bet out for 32,000, which sent Maimone into the tank for a while before he folded, and Spirins was pushed the healthy-sized pot with no showdown and has pushed up to nearly 400,000 early on from the 150,000 starting stack
