Ruefenacht Makes the Fifth Bet
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Pascal Ruefenacht was under the gun and had a single T-5,000 chip in front of him for a raise to an unknown amount, and Daniel Kysoev put in the same chip for a call. Antonino Venneri then made it 8,000 to go from cutoff before Georgios Karakousis put in the cold four-bet to 20,000 from the big blind for his entire stack.
Ruefenacht followed up with a five-bet jam for 41,200 and everyone else folded after some deliberation.
Georgios Karakousis: A♠10♠
Pascal Ruefenacht: Q♣Q♦
Karakousis was at risk with the worse hand but that all changed on the 8♠A♥6♠ flop. No queen was seen on the J♥6♦ runout, and Karakousis, who is on his third bullet, more than doubled up.
