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 10J9 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 A4, playing his ace with the two pair on the board. "Split," Sboev said, showing A5 as they chopped the massive pot.
