Ladev Applies Pressure to Maeda
Nivel 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Markkos Ladev opened to 3,000 from early position and Akinobu Maeda defended his big blind.
On the K♥8♣7♥ flop, Ladev continued for 5,500 into a pot of 8,500 and Maeda quickly called.
The turn brought the 5♠. Ladev kept up the pressure as he bet 11,000 and Maeda took some time before he called.
The Q♠ peeled off on the river. Maeda checked for a third time and Ladev bet enough to put Maeda all-in for 16,500 effective. Maeda was dubious but he opted to reluctantly folded in the end as Ladev's aggression won him the pot without showdown.
