Shalamov Makes a Big Fold for Tournament Life
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Oliver Weis K♥7♥ raised to 300,000 from the button and folded when Mikhail Shalamov A♠6♣ three-bet jammed for 2,450,000.
Weis then received a walk in the big blind.
Shalamov K♦Q♣ raised to 300,000, and Georgios Tsouloftas J♥8♣ defended from the big blind. Shalamov made top pair on the K♠10♦8♠ flop. Tsouloftas check-called for 300,000 with his bottom pair, bringing in the 10♣ turn. Tsouloftas led out for 375,000 and was called. The 8♦ river filled Tsouloftas up and he moved all in for Shalamov's 1,930,000.
The Russian made another astute fold after using several time banks and kept himself in contention
