Kuznetsov Applies Pressure
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Nikita Kuznetsov opened to 3,000 from the cutoff, and was faced with a three-bet to 11,500 by Timur Muxamedaminov in the small blind. Kuznetsov called.
On the A♦Q♣3♠ flop, Muxamedaminov continued with a bet of 6,000, and Kuznetsov stuck around for the turn, which came the 9♠ and was checked through.
On the 8♥ river, Muxamedaminov checked once more. Kuznetsov fired out a bet of 37,000, almost pot, and his opponent, who had about 65,000 left behind, went deep into the tank.
After about two minutes, he tapped the table and mucked his cards, sending a decent pot to Kuznetsov.
