Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Artur Shupa opened the action to 30,000 from the button, and Dimitrios Gkatzas called from the big blind.
The flop came Q♠8♠3♥, and Gkatzas checked. Shupa followed up with a continuation bet of 20,000, but Gkatzas responded with a check-raise to 75,000. Shupa called.
The K♣ landed on the turn, and Gkatzas opted to check. Shupa seized the opportunity and bet 60,000, which Gkatzas called.
The river brought the A♣, and Gkatzas checked once more. Shupa upped the pressure with a larger bet of 200,000. Gkatzas appeared to be in a tough spot but ultimately found the call with K♠J♦, taking down the pot as Shupa mucked his hand.
