Ketzer Uses His First Time Bank to Sniff Out Zhugralin
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Dmitry Gromov raised to 30,000 from the hijack, Felipe Ketzer called from the cutoff, and Damir Zhugralin came along from the big blind.
After two checks on the K♥3♠5♦ flop, Ketzer bet 25,000, and both Zhugralin and Gromov called.
The 8♦ turn checked through before the 9♠ completed the board. Zhugralin led out for 125,000, which got Gromov to fold. Ketzer used his first time bank of the tournament before deciding to call.
The extra thought proved worthwhile, as Zhugralin revealed A♠2♠ for a bluff and Ketzer tabled A♦9♦ for a pair of nines to win the pot.
