Smotrov's Check-Raise Strategy Succeeds

Level 1: 100 / 100 ante: 100

Akhil Bahadur opened from under the gun to 400 and received three callers: Chienhung Shen on the button, Ting-Chieh Yang from the small blind, and Vladislav Smotrov in the big blind.


When the flop revealed 7 4 5 , Yang checked over and Smotrov led out for 700, which only Shen came along for the ride.


Both players checked through the A turn to see a J river, where Smotrov checked to Shen who bet 2,600. Smotrov then put in a raise to 7,000, forcing his opponent to muck and dragging in the pot.
