Extended Run of Small Pots for Puchkov

Razz

Puchkov: (X) (X) / {6-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {j-Spades} {2-Hearts} / (X)
Barbieri: (X) (X) / {k-Hearts} {3-Spades} {q-Hearts} {a-Diamonds} / (X)

As the pace of play has slow down, Konstantin Puchkov has started to win more than his share of pots. He played an unusual razz hand against Al Barbieri a few moments ago. Barbieri brought it in on third, then called Puchkov's completion. Puchkov bet the low board on fourth street and again Barbieri called.

On fifth street Puchkov made a strange check with a board that was leagues better than Barbieri's. Barbieri then bet, drawing 30 seconds of thought form Puchkov before he called.

Both players checked sixth street. Down the river, Puchkov finally fired and induced a fold from Barbieri.

With that pot, Puchkov climed to about 2.2 million in chips. He is the leader now.
