Fartuk Calls with Top Pair
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
On a board of A♠6♥4♥3♣K♥ with roughly 75,000-80,000 in the pot, Eduard Norel on the button bet 84,000 on the river. In the cutoff, Nir Fartuk went into the tank. "I can't fold" he said after a long moment, so he called with remaining chips.
Nir Fartuk: A♦Q♠
Eduard Norel: 8♣7♦
Fartuk called with top pair, and caught Norel bluffing. He doubled up, and one more elimination is still needed to reach the bubble.
