Yaroshevskyy Snaps a River Bluff
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Igor Yaroshevskyy raised to 1,600 from the cutoff, and Jonathan Azoulay elected to three-bet to 4,000 on the button. The action folded back to Yaroshevskyy, who called.
Both players opted to check on the J♦A♣9♠ flop, and the dealer added the 8♦ to the board.
Yaroshevskyy took over the betting lead, putting out a bet of 7,500, which Azoulay called.
The river brought the 2♥ prompting Yaroshevskyy to bet again, this time for 20,000. Azoulay then looked at his opponents' stack up and down, before moving all in.
Yaroshevskyy snap-called, tabling 9♣9♥ for a set. Azoulay mucked his cards, and after receiving an official count of his opponents stack, paid him 58,000.
