Zobian Raises River in Confusing Pot
Level 2
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Alec Torelli opened from under the gun and received calls from Aram Zobian on the button and Jiaming Zhao from the big blind.
On the 9?8?3? flop, the action checked to Zobian who bet 600 and only Zhao called.
The turn brought the 9?. Zobian sized up to 2,700 but Zhao stuck around.
The 8? came on the river. Zhao opted to lead for 9,500, and Zobian responded with a raise to 22,200.
In a moment of confusion, Zhao tabled his 4?3? as he was unaware that Zobian had raised. In good sportsmanship, Zobian asserted that Zhao was clearly going to fold and scooped the pot without showdown but he claimed he had a nine.
