Hrabec and Neves Play a Big One Before Break
Rui Neves raised to 175,000 under the gun, Biao Ding flatted in the cutoff, and Roman Hrabec defended in the big blind.
The flop came 2?A?2?, and it checked over to Ding who bet 150,000. Hrabec called and Neves raised to 400,000, prompting Ding to get out of the way. Hrabec then used a time bank card before coming over the top and making it 650,000 to go. Neves thought for a moment and called.
The turn landed the 6? and after some careful consideration, both players checked to the 10? river.
Hrabec used another time bank card before putting out a bet of 575,000, leaving himself with 100,000 behind. After burning through several time bank cards, Neves made the call.
Hrabec tabled A?9?8?7? for two pair, aces and deuces. Neves mucked and the pot was pushed Hrabec's way.
