Bjorkheim Pulls Back Ahead
Level 26
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Seyed Tabaei raised out of the small blind to 250,000 with the 8♦7♦ and Anders Bjorkheim three-bet to 600,000 in the big blind with the A♥3♣, which Tabaei called. On the 4♥2♥2♠ flop, Tabaei check-folded to a continuation bet by Bjorkheim.
Bjorkheim then raised the next button to 250,000 with the 7♥6♠ and Tabaei defended the 8♥6♦ in the big blind. Both had a piece of the Q♦8♣7♠ flop but checked. Tabaei bet the 7♣ turn for 400,000 and Bjorkheim called.
On the Q♠ river, Tabaei checked and Bjorkheim bet 375,000 to get paid off by Tabaei, regaining a solid lead.
