Bou Habib Builds Big Pot, Checks It Down

Level 1 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Makram Bou Habib, Damir Zhugralin, and a player in the hijack each put in 2,000 preflop as the dealer turned over {9-Hearts}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}. Bou Habib, in the big blind, fired out 5,700 and only Zhugralin called.

The turn came the {7-Diamonds} and Bou Habib played with his chips for a moment before checking. "Did he check," Zhugralin confirmed with the dealer before checking behind.

The {3-Diamonds} fell on the river and Bou Habib again checked. Zhugralin quickly checked back and Bou Habib took down the big pot with {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}.
