Vela Applies Maximum Pressure
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The pot stood at approximately 400,000 with two players looking at a flop of K?A?K?.
Farzad Bonyadi, in the big blind, bet out 85,000 and Michael Vela called, from the button.
The 9? turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Bonyadi sized up to 300,000.
The K? river slowed down Bonyadi who checked. Vela, almost instantly, moved all in for Bonyadi's effective stack of approximately 550,000. Bonyadi snap-folded.
