Malec Forces Cazacu to Fold Top Pair
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Adrian Cazacu opened to 160,000 from the cutoff, and Sebastian Malec called in the small blind.
On the Q♥6♦2♠ flop, Malec check-raised to 425,000 versus a bet of 175,000 from Cazacu, who called.
The 4♣ hit on the turn, and Malec continued with a bet of 425,000. After some thought, Cazacu called.
The 10♣ river completed the board, and Malec jammed with the covering stack. Cazacu was pained, and took three time banks before folding A♣Q♠ for top pair queens, sending a chunky pot to Malec.
