Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
After he four-bet to take a pot, Hwany Lee in the cutoff opened to 40,000, and was called by Ilia Pavlov in the big blind.
Both players checked on the flop 6?7?J?. But on the turn 10?, Pavlov took the lead and bet 60,000. Lee quickly called to find the 9? on the river.
Pavlov fired a second barrel of 175,000, and Lee called again, showing 9?9? for a set hit on the river. But the nine completed Pavlov's straight with A?8?, so he won this one.
