Sapitavicius Takes Early Four-Bet Pot
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Francisco Caballo Pena opened the action to 11,000 from the hijack and Sirzat Hissou put in a three-bet to 35,000 on the button. Arunas Sapitavicius was next to act in the small blind and put in a cold four-bet to 80,000. It folded back around to Pena who folded and Hissou made the call.
The flop fanned out 5?5?4? and Sapitavicius continued for 45,000, which Hissou came along. On the 7? turn both players slowed down with a check to the J? river and again action went check-check.
Sapitavicius tabled 9?9? for a pair of nines and Hissou flashed A?K? before tossing his cards into the muck.
