Vogelsang Check-Calls His Way to a Big Pot
First to act, Christoph Vogelsang raised to 175,000 with [Ahkd]. Button Mikita Badziakouski flatted with [Jd9d]. Heads up to a [KcTh4d] flop, though it was Vogelsang who’d hit top pair, it was Badziakouski who took over betting. Vogelsang called his 175,000 flop bet, and his 525,000 bet on the [7s] turn, before checking a final time on the river, having spiked a second pair with the [As]. Badziakouski considered this card for a while, his opponent’s stack just under the pot now, but elected to give up at this juncture.
