Vandanapu Defends His Big Blind With Success
Level 19
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Vamshi Vandanapu defended his big blind after Jorden Verbraeken raised from the cutoff to 23,000. The other players got out of the way and they saw the flop heads-up.
The flop was dealt 
and Verbraeken continued his aggression with a bet of 24,000 after Vandanapu had checked. Vandanapu called and they went to the turn.
Both players checked after the dealer dealt the 
turn and Vandanapu lead out with a bet of 55,000 on the 
river. Verbreaken folded within a second and the pot was awarded to Vandanapu who is now closing in on the chip lead.
