Funaro Chips Up Early
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/1,000, 1,000 ante
Nikita Kuznetsov raised it up from the cutoff and picked up three callers including Frank Funaro in the big blind. The flop came J?5?5? and Kuznetsov continued with a bet of 4,000. The button called and Funaro also tagged along.
The turn brought the 8? and Funaro led out with a bet of 9,000. Kuznetsov folded but the button called to see the 2? on the river. Funaro checked this time and his opponent checked it back. Funaro turned over A?J? and was awarded the pot.
