Hussain Chipping Up
Imran Ali Hussain has been doing well at his table. He is sitting on the big stack, which he added to by taking down two recent pots.
In the first one, he was sitting on button and his opponent three-bet to 12,700 from the small blind. Hussain called.
The flop came 10♣J♠7♥ and small blind continuation-bet for 10,000. Hussain called.
The turn 5♠ got checked around, and, after some thinking from Hussain, so did the river 3♠.
Small blind turned over A♥9♦ and Hussain was able to take it down with better ace-high, A♦K♦.
Next hand, the opponent in late position made it 3,000 and Hussain called in the cutoff.
The flop was Q♦10♣6♠ and Hussain called his opponent’s 3,000 continuation-bet.
The turn was the 6♥. Late position checked and Hussain bet 10,500. Late position called.
The river was the 5♣, and after another check from this opponent, Hussain made it 23,500. Late position thought for a while and then folded. Hussain offered him to pick a card, and his opponent was happy to see he made the right decision after seeing the card was 6♦.
