Masliankou Six-Bet Shoves as Big Stacks Collide
Level 25
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The biggest pot of the tournament so far has taken place, and it didn't even get to a flop.
The action folded around to Giorgiy Skhulukhiya in the small blind who limped. Big blind Yury Masliankou raised to 140,000 and Skhulukhiya then three-bet to 390,000.
Masliankou made it 900,000 and Skhulukhiya then raised to 1,600,000. Masliankou took his time before announcing all in for 3,765,000.
Skhulukhiya tanked and had a very early clock called on him by someone at the table. The tournament official understandably gave him some more time and eventually, he announced fold allowing his Belarussian opponent to take down the pot and move above five million in chips.
