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 Q96 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.
