Nakai Pulls Clear
Level 52
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Looking down at 7♠7♥, Ryuta Nakai opened to 50,000 on the button and found himself facing a three-bet to 200,000 from Dimitar Danchev in the big blind with 9♥9♣. Nakai responded with a four-bet to 400,000, and Danchev called.
The dealer spread a 6♣J♠J♦ flop, and Danchev check-called a continuation-bet of 350,000 by Nakai.
Danchev checked for a second time on the A♠ flop, but this time folded when Nakai barrelled for 1,100,000, getting a better hand to fold.
