Pavon Gets Value with Set to Leave Sylla Short
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The action was picked up on the river with around 65,000 in the middle in a pot between Julien Pavon in the cutoff and Ahmed Sylla on the button.
With the board reading 9♦8♣3♦J♦K♣, Pavon led for 33,000 which sent Sylla deep into the tank. After around two minutes, Sylla called the clock on himself and the floor came over to begin the countdown. With one second left, Sylla dropped in the call and got the bad news as Pavon revealed J♥J♣ for a turned set as he dragged a sizeable pot and left Sylla on fumes.
