Yaghmai Bites a Big Chunk Off Belluscio
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Nariman Yaghmai in the cutoff, Ghassan Hoss in the small blind, and Julio Belluscio in the big blind had already built a pot of 400,000 when the flop dropped 3♥7♦3♣.
After action was checked to him, Yaghmai fired 75,000, pushing Hoss out of the pot. Belluscio called to see the next street.
The J♦ turn fell, and Belluscio check-raised Yaghmai's 225,000 bet and made it 550,000. Yaghmai went into the tank and took his time to consider his options. He made the call, taking them to the river.
The river 2♥ was peeled, and Belluscio shoved all in. Yaghmai instantly called. Belluscio showed 8♦7♥ while Yaghmai tabled Q♥Q♦ for a better two pair hand.
