Ebolheb Wins Battle of Big Slicks
Klas Krueger raised to 1,500 in middle position with A?K? and was called by Tom-Aksel Bedell on the button, who had J?9?. Fariss Ebolheb, finding A?K?, three-bet to 4,900 in the small blind before Brandon Sheils put in a fourth bet worth 12,600 with A?K?.
Krueger got rid of his cards and Bedell folded as well. Ebolheb called to the 10?5?7? flop, where Sheils continued for 6,300. Ebolheb check-called and the 4? turn was put on the table.
After some consideration, Ebolheb checked again, seeing Sheils check back. The 10? river completed the board, where Ebolheb pushed in a bet of 17,000.
Sheils weighed his options carefully but ultimately decided to fold what would have been a chopped pot. Ebolheb raked in the big pot as the only one out of the three players with ace-king to see a return on their investment.
