Hrabec and Neves Play a Big One Before Break
Rui Neves raised to 175,000 under the gun, Biao Ding flatted in the cutoff, and Roman Hrabec defended in the big blind.
The flop came 2♦A♠2♥, and it checked over to Ding who bet 150,000. Hrabec called and Neves raised to 400,000, prompting Ding to get out of the way. Hrabec then used a time bank card before coming over the top and making it 650,000 to go. Neves thought for a moment and called.
The turn landed the 6♣ and after some careful consideration, both players checked to the 10♦ river.
Hrabec used another time bank card before putting out a bet of 575,000, leaving himself with 100,000 behind. After burning through several time bank cards, Neves made the call.
Hrabec tabled A♣9♥8♦7♥ for two pair, aces and deuces. Neves mucked and the pot was pushed Hrabec's way.
