Veloso Raises Big on the River for Afriat to Fold His Full House
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Eric Afriat raised to 550,000 in the cutoff with 8♦6♣ and Sergio Veloso called on the button with the K♥10♥.
The flop came K♠8♣8♥ and Afriat bet 300,000. Veloso called, and the 9♥ fell on the turn.
Afriat then bet 1,000,000, and Veloso called. The river was the 6♥ and Afriat bet 2,500,000, but this time Veloso came back with a raise to 6,900,000.
Afriat spent several minutes trying to talk to Veloso while shuffling his chips around in his hand, but Veloso revealed nothing, and Afriat eventually folded his full house, which would have beaten Veloso's flush.
