button in SafariSandev Gets Paid By Faulkner
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Georgi Sandev opened to 800 from the cutoff before Max Faulkner called on the button. Chad Burum joined the hand with a call out of the small blind.
The 6♣2♠Q♣ flop led to a round of checks to bring the 9♠ turn.
Burum and Sandev both checked before Faulkner wagered 1,500. Burum folded, but Sandev stuck around with a call.
The A♦ river resulted in another check from Sandev. Faulkner fired 1,500 again, but this time, Sandev check-raised to 8,000. Faulkner pondered the situation before he put in a call to go to a showdown.
Sandev showed A♣9♥ for running two pair, while Faulkner showed A♠K♠ for a rivered pair of aces that was no good.
