Murthy Stacked
Julien Arethuse opened to 40,000 from middle position. Action folded around and Neel Murthy defended the big blind.
The 7?10?8? was checked around before Murthy led the 3? turn for 65,000. Arethuse called. Murthy then bet around 120,000 on the J? river and was snap-called by Arethuse. Murthy's J?2? had made top pair but Arethuse made a jack high straight with 9?8? to scoop the pot.
The very next hand. Vladislav Dubanov opened from early position to 40,000. Neel Murthy moved all in for 80,000. Frederick Anastasiades then reraised out of the big blind to 150,000. Dubanov went into the tank before folding.
Neel Murthy: K?10?
Frederick Anastasiades: K?K?
Anastasiades hit the case king and made a full house on the K?7?7? flop; the 6? turn and J? river cards were purely a formality.
