Big Slick Does the Trick For Rezaei
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Daniel Rezaei opened to 3,000 from middle position and was called by Fernando Banda in the small blind and Helge Bjorlow in the big blind.
Banda checked to Bjorlow on the Q♥4♠J♠ flop and he went all in for his remaining 5,500. Both Rezaei and Banda called.
Banda check-called a 7,500 bet from Rezaei on the A♦ turn, but check-folded after a lengthy tank facing an 11,000 bet from Rezaei on the 8♥ river.
Bjorlow turned over J♦5♣ for a flopped pair of jacks, but it was no good against Rezaei's A♣K♥ for a turned pair of aces — eliminating Bjorlow from contention.
