Vavilonskii Pressures Joumaa

Level 8 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Bakhos Joumaa opened to 5,500 from middle position and received calls from Tinay Aksoy in the cutoff, Andrei Vavilonskii on the button and Guoliang Wei in the big blind.

The flop came K?6?J?. Wei checked, Joumaa bet 8,000, Aksoy called and Vavilonskii raised to 32,000. Wei folded, Joumaa called and Aksoy folded leaving players heads up going into the turn.

On the J? turn Joumaa lead out with a bet of 40,000. Vavilonskii made the call.

The river was the 5?. Joumaa thought for roughly two minutes before checking. Vavilonskii took his time to weigh his options as well before betting 95,000. Joumaa's hand hit the muck and Vavilonskii took down a sizable pot without showdown towards the end of the night.
