Philippovich Makes the Right Call
Level 7
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Robert Abdilov raised to 2,400 under the gun and Harout Ghazarian called from middle position along with Walter Treccarichi in the small blind and Georgy Philippovich in the big blind.
The flop came 
and was checked around to the 
turn. Treccarichi and Philippovich checked once more but Abdilov bet 5,000. Ghazarian and Treccarichi folded but Philippovich check-called.
The 
river completed the board and Philippovich checked for a third time. Abdilov continued with a bet of 16,000. Philippovich took a few seconds of reflection then called. Abdilov showed 
for a bluff and Philippovich tabled 
to win the pot with jacks and nines.
