Japanese tussle: Miyamoto bullies Fukuoka out of pot

Level 3: 100 / 300 ante: 300

Miyamoto Masakazu

Raising from the +2 position is Japan's Daisuke Fukuoka to 700 and picks up two callers in fellow Japanese player Masakazu Miyamoto (D) and Mariano de la Pena of the Philippines (BB).

The flop is 9♣ J♠ 9♥ as de la Pena checks. Fukuoka CBets to 1,000 and gets called by Miyamoto. De la Pena gets out of the way.

The turn is the K♥ and the bombardment continues from Fukuoka as he unloads 2,700. Miyamoto stays sticky and calls.

The river card is the T♠ for what looks to be a one-card straight. Unperturbed, Fukuoka bets again, this time for 7,000. Miyamoto then raises to 20,400, effectively putting his opponent all-in.

Fukuoka tanks for a bit but eventually folds.
