Busquet Stops the Slide, Botond Suffers
Olivier Busquet's stack has been heading south since the dinner break. He firmly put a stop to that by taking a large chunk of Balazs Botond's stack.
Busquet opened to 20,000 from mid position and called when Botond three-bet to 40,000 from the button. The flop fell and Busquet check-called a 45,000 c-bet. Both players checked the turn to see the river appear.
Busquet checked again and faced a 76,000 from Botond. He sat and thought for two minutes before he grabbed raising chips and made it 225,000. Botond made a reluctant looking call and was shown for a straight. Botond shook his head, flashed the and mucked.
