Massive Pot Turns Anti-Climactic For El Sayed, Sboev
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Evgenii Sboev three-bet to 14,500 in middle position before Mahmoud El Sayed, under the gun, four-bet to 30,000. Sboev called and they went heads-up to the 10♠J♠9♣ flop.
Both players checked to the 10♥ turn, where El Sayed led out for 35,000. Sboev called once more to see the 9♥ river.
El Sayed again slowed down and tapped the felt. Sboev spent a few moments twirling his chips between his fingers before announcing a check back.
El Sayed then turned over A♣4♣, playing his ace with the two pair on the board. "Split," Sboev said, showing A♠5♠ as they chopped the massive pot.
