Vavilonskii Navigates the Three-Bet Pot

Andrei Vavilonskii opened in late position to 16,000 before the action made it to Sergei Bortsov in the small blind, who cold-called, and action was on Eugenio Peralta in the big blind who took a moment before putting in the squeeze to 65,000.

Vavilonskii called, but Bortsov got out of the way as the dealer gathered the bets and put out the 8♥4♥4♣ flop.

Peralta continued for 40,000 and Vavilonskii quickly made the call on their way to a 5♠ turn. Peralta went into the tank and even burned a time bank before ultimately checking his action over to Vavilonskii, who went into the tank. After about 30 seconds, Vavilonskii put out a bet of 95,000.

Peralta mulled it over and counted out his chips, but eventually folded his hand. Vavilonskii dragged the pot and added some chips to his already healthy stack.
