Fattahi Bombs the River
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/3,500, 3,500 ante
A player in middle position bet 17,000 on a flop of 5?4?J? and Ashkan Fattahi called in the hijack.
The turn was the 7? and the middle-position player bet another 40,000. Fattahi again called and the river was the 2?.
Fattahi's opponent slowed down and checked this time. "I know he's calling," Fattahi said as he bet 165,000.
"Nobody folds against me," Fattahi added as his opponent went into the tank for several minutes. "Kings you have to say bon chance. You cannot fold kings," Fattahi told him.
The middle-position player eventually folded and Fattahi showed the Q? as he took the pot. "You are a very strong player," Fattahi said after the hand.
