Buhaiov Doubles, Perati Getting Short
Muhamet Perati opened to 800,000 from under the gun and Nazar Buhaiov three-bet to 1,800,000 in the hijack. Perati four-bet shoved all in and Buhaiov snapped off his stack of 7,125,000.
Nazar Buhaiov: K♥K♦
Muhamet Perati: 2♥2♣
The flop came K♠6♦2♠ with the deuce in the window but the king was right behind it. The J♣ and 9♦ runout changed nothing and Buhaiov doubled up with a set of kings.
On the next hand, John Wasnock raised to 800,000 in the hijack and Perati called from the big blind. The flop came A♦10♠9♠ and Perati check-called a bet of 1,200,000 from Wasnock.
The turn brought the 8♥ and both players checked to the 3♠ on the river. Perati checked for the last time and Wasnock threw in a bet of 1,500,000. Perati gave it his full attention but eventually decided to fold.
