Nitsche Puts Hissou to the Test
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Sirzat Hissou raised to 5,500 from middle position, Dominik Nitsche called on the button, as did Kazuhiko Yotsushika, in the big blind.
The action checked to Nitsche, who bet out 6,000 on the Q♦K♥6♠ flop. Yotsushika folded and Hissou called.
The 2♦ turn saw Hissou check-call another bet of 20,000 from Nitsche.
The river landed the 9♣ and Hissou checked again. Nitsche bet out 95,000, more than enough to put Hissou all in for his effective stack of 54,000. Hissou used four time bank chips before finally deciding to fold.
