Barakat Second Bullet Going Better

Level 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Billy Tarango raised to 20,000 in the hijack, and Tong Li in the cutoff and Dylan Weisman on the button both called. Youness Barakat then three-bet to 10,600 from the small blind, which only Tarango and Weisman called.

The action checked to Weisman on the Q1010 flop, who bet 9,000. Barakat called, and Tarango folded before the action checked through on the 5 turn.

Barakat then led for pot on the 8 river, betting 53,600. Weisman considered the situation, but ultimately folded.
