Maksimov Finds Value

Artem Maksimov raised in early position to 30,000. The next player to act called, which prompted Jeffrey Hakim to follow suit before the big blind joined in, too.

The four players went to a flop of 5♥6♥5♣ and action checked through.

The turn J♣ was good enough for Maskimov to pick up the aggression again, betting 45,000. Hakim was the only player to call.

The river 10♠ didn't slow Maskimov down, this time putting out a bet of 155,000. Hakim really wasn't sure what to do, using four time banks before counting out the chips and calling.

Maskimov turned over A♣A♥10♣8♥, for two pair, and Hakim mucked his cards face down.
