Buhaiov Keeps Stacking Chips
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
A completed board of 5♥3♦2♣10♣3♣ was spread across the felt and Valeriano Moreno was already all in and ready to leave the table. Pete Chen and Nazar Buhaiov were heads-up in the side pot that had well over 100,000 in the middle at this point.
Chen checked from early position and Buhaiov splashed in a bet of 140,000. Chen quickly called and tabled 10♠8♠ for top pair. However, Buhaiov turned over K♥10♥ for a better kicker to win the side pot and Moreno's A♥J♣ went into the muck for the main pot.
