Bakhtiev Quickly Loses Half His Stack
Level 2
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
There were already around 30,000 chips in the pot on a 7♦K♥A♥ flop when the small blind checked and Ruslan Bakhtiev bet 12,000 from the big blind. Reza Rahbari called on the button, and the small blind folded.
When the 2♠ hit the turn, Bakhtiev wasted no time in tossing out a single white chip, worth 25,000, and bet all of it. Rahbari didn't seem too impressed with the sizing but tossed in the chip anyway.
A 5♦ hit the river and Bakhtiev waved the white flag, knuckling the table, which prompted Rahbari just to flip his cards over and show K♦J♦ for a pair of kings. Bakhtiev couldn't beat that and sent his cards back to the dealer, leaving Rahbari to rake in the pot.
