Sfez Takes Consecutive Pots and Busts Nikiforov
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Around 50,000 was in the middle on a flop of K?9?5? in a hand between Eric Sfez and Andras Nemeth in early position, and Mikita Badziakouski in the cutoff.
Action was checked to Badziakouski, who put out a bet of 11,000. Sfez produced a prompt check-raise to 42,000, and both of his opponents quickly folded.
In the next hand, Sfez opened to 4,000 under the gun and Ilya Nikiforov put in his last 3,000. All other opponents folded.
Ilya Nikiforov: A?Q?
Eric Sfez: A?K?
Nikiforov's ace was dominated, and the 2?6?2?6?K? runout confirmed his exit, Sfez ending up with a pair of kings.
