Najim Makes the Right Call to Bust Canetti
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
A large pot of around 105,000 had formed on the turn in a pot between Jeremie Canetti from under the gun and Yassine Najim from the cutoff.
With the board reading A♣4♥2♥10♦, Canetti jammed his remaining 84,500 into the middle which sent Najim into the tank. After a minute of deliberation, he slide his chips forward to call, committing over half of his remaining stack.
Jeremie Canetti: A♥8♥
Yassine Najim: A♠Q♥
Both players had top pair but Najim's kicker was better. However, Canetti could spike a heart or eight to double. Luckily for Najim, the river was a blank K♣ and Najim's queen played to bust Canetti.
