Lijo Shoves on Meskin
Level 3
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Lander Lijo opened to 6,000 from early position and Yaman Nakdali called in the small blind. In the big blind, Mike Meskin squeezed to 35,000 and only Lijo called.
On the Q♦9♣6♥ flop, Meskin continued for a healthy sizing of 50,000 and Lijo put in the call.
Meskin slowed down with a check on the 7♥ turn before Lijo announced a bet of 36,000. Meskin snap-called.
On the 3♥ river, Meskin checked once more to Lijo who announced all-in for 203,500 into a pot of 269,000. Meskin, who had just 202,000 behind, would go deep into the tank as he burned through four time banks before he opted to let it go, and Lijo dragged a huge one without showdown.
