Spataru Forces Mahmoud Out on the River
Level 4
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Felipe Ketzer made it 1,800 and Yassin Mahmoud three-bet the cutoff to 4,200. Andrei Spataru then four-balled from the big blind to 14,000, which got Ketzer to fold, but Mahmoud called at lightning speed.
On the K♣7♣A♦ flop, Spataru made a continuation-bet of 7,500 and Mahmoud raised to 16,000. Spataru called.
They both checked the 2♣ turn to see the 6♦ fall on the river, where Spataru announced a bet of 27,000 and threw the chips in. Mahmoud had lost interest in the the pot and quickly folded, which meant Spataru was pushed the chips.
