Bhalla Keeps Up the Pressure to Take It Down
Level 30
: 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Artem Tuliupa opened from the hijack and Eshaan Bhalla defended his big blind to see a flop of 2♣A♠5♦.
Both players checked through, and the J♣ hit the turn. Bhalla took the initiative with a bet of 1,500,000, which Tuliupa called after a short pause.
The Q♦ landed on the river, and Bhalla wasn’t slowing down. He slid out a second barrel worth 3,300,000. Tuliupa went deep into the tank, but eventually decided to let it go, giving Bhalla the pot without showdown.
