Smiley Catches Chivukula Out
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Zachary Smiley opened up the action as the shortest stack on the table, with a raise to 2,200 from early position. Venkat Chivukula found himself two doors down and went for another raise. He made it 5,500, and only Smiley called.
On a flop of 5♥K♦7♥ Smiley checked his option over to Chivukula, who continued small, for 2,800. Smiley didn't think for long before check-raising to 11,000, which got a swift fold out of his opponent.
