Afriat Uses the Big Stack to Bully
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Maksim Pisarenko raised to 325,000 from under the gun with A♣J♥ and Eric Afriat just called in the hijack with K♠Q♦. They went heads-up to a flop of 6♠6♦4♦ and Pisarenko continued with a bet of 225,000 which Afriat called.
The turn brought the 3♥ and Pisarenko sized up another bet of 825,000. Afriat put together a raise to 1,800,000 with just king-high and Pisarenko was forced to dump the best hand into the muck.
