Gromov Applies Maximum Pressure to Aslan
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
There had been an open before Dmitry Gromov made it 75,000 from the hijack. Kemal Aslan then four-bet from the small blind to 207,000, which only Gromov called.
On the 9♥6♦8♣ flop, Aslan continued with a bet of 107,000, and was put to the test as Gromov slid out a full stack of white chips, for a raise to 500,000. Aslan had around 260,000 behind and was deep in the tank while he pondered how to proceed.
After counting out his stack a few times, Aslan elected to fold, and Gromov added to his stack as the bubble looms closer.
Gromov + big stack + bubble = A nightmare for short stacks.
