Carvalho Pads His Stack
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Rustam Kabdylsalykov opened to 600 on the button and was called by Manuel Carvalho in the small blind. Dmitry Vitkind squeezed to 3,500 from the big blind, which got a fold from Kabdylsalykov and a call from Carvalho.
Carvalho check-called a 2,200 bet from Vitkind on the 8♣8♠Q♣ flop and then both players checked on the 4♦ turn.
Carvalho took the initiative with a 2,400 bet on the 8♦ river and Vitkind looked him up. Carvalho tabled Q♥J♥ for eights-full of queens and Vitkind sent his hand into the muck.
