Filatov Wants to be the Bully

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Marco Slacanac raised to 2,500 from under the gun and Anatoly Filatov called in the big blind.

"He's a bully, especially against me!" Filatov said to the PokerNews live reporting team.

The flop came down {7-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, Filatov check-called the 2,000 continuation-bet of Slacanac.

The turn brought them the {6-Diamonds}, Filatov now check-called the 5,000 bet of Slacanac.

The river completed the board with the {8-Spades}, Filatov took over the initiative now by leading out for 10,000. Slacanac considered it for a bit and then called. Filatov tabled {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} for the rivered straight.

"Queen?" Filatov asked Slacanac, Slacanac nodded and then showed the {q-Hearts}.

"I'm going to be the bully now," Filatov said. "This table is crazy! Viktor (Blom) three-bet to 20,000 on a raise!"

"I thought the yellows were 1,000!" Blom said apologetically with a small grin while shrugging his shoulders.

"Yeah, I thought it was nice sizing," Filatov responded with a huge smile on his face. "Look at that stack, he's got like 900 big blinds now! It's ridiculous!" Filatov exclaimed referring to Slacanac's stack.
