Vaka Busts to Varnaev in Four-Bet Pot
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Monica Vaka raised to 2,400 from late position and Sergei Varnaev three-bet to 8,500 from the button. Vaka then four-bet to 24,000 and Varnaev looked across at his opponent before carefully placing a call in the middle.
The flop came Q?J?A? and Vaka moved all in for a little less than 30,000, which Varnaev snap-called. Vaka showed A?10? for a pair of aces, while Varnaev turned over A?Q? for two pair, aces and queens.
The turn was the 8? and river the 8?. Varnaev held to win the pot, sending Vaka to the rail.
