Paunescu Goes Big for Value
Level 27
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Uladzimir Zhyharau raised to 100,000 from under the gun and Nicolae Paunescu called in the big blind.
The two players checked to the river as the full board now read 2?6?K?8?9?. Paunescu took a stab at this pot for a very sizable wager of 550,000. Zhyharau made a reluctant call. Paunescu tabled A?J? for the nuts, earning him this early pot.
