Karatayeu Takes From Pihela
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Chip leader Ivan Karatayeu opened to 1,600 from early position and was called by Gheorge-Gabriel Podovei and Igor Pihela from the hijack and the button. Guillermo Sanz also defended his big blind.
Action checked through to the river for the final board to read A?J?6?K?5?. Sanz checked, and Karatayeu bet 6,000. Podovei folded before fellow top ten stack Pihela called. Sanz also got out of the way.
Karatayeu tabled J?8? for a flush and Pihela mucked his hand.
