Korzinin Chooses an Interesting Hand to Jam
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau had just taken a pot off Kayhan Mokri in a blind on blind battle, leaving the latter with a sub-20 big blind stack.
Vaskaboinikau was back in action on the next deal, opening to 14,000 from the button and went into the tank after Vladimir Korzinin jammed for around 280,000 from the big blind.
Vaskaboinikau opted to preserve his stack, saying "Next time, I gamble," as he open-folded 6x6x. Korzinin took in the pot and then tabled 9x6x which drew a few laughs and gasps from the table. Ren Lin was a fan of the move and reached over the table to give the Estonian a fist bump.
