Reichenstein Hero Calls With Ace-High
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
In a limped pot, Uri Reichenstein on the button bet 250,000 on 10♥8♣8♦. But Damir Zhugralin didn’t want to let the pot to his opponent that easly, so he check-raised to 850,000. Reichenstein made the call, and the J♠ landed on the turn.
This time, Zhugralin checked, as did Reichenstein. But on the river J♣, Zhugralin bet 1,400,000, half of Reichenstein’s stack.
With A♠7♠, Reichenstein clearly had a decision. And he eventually called with his ace-high. A successful hero call, because Zhugralin only had 9♠6♠.
After this pot, both stacks are almost even.
