Level 23
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
On the last hand before the break, Bradley Gafford opened the action from under the gun. Lyudmil Ivanov was in the big blind and defended.
The flop was 3♥2♣4♣. Ivanov check-called Gafford’s 60,000-chip bet.
The turn was the 9♠. Ivanov checked, Gafford bet 200,000. Ivanov again called.
The river was the 10♣. Ivanov checked again and Gafford went all in for 520,000. Ivanov quickly called.
Gafford flipped over 9♣9♦ for a turned set of nines, while Ivanov also had a set, the flopped set of deuces with 2♥2♠, which cost him almost 900,000 chips.
