Hand#98 – Hugues Girard opens to 800,000 from the button with

Hand #101 – Etienne Silva De Oliveira completes in the small blind with 
and Kostya Zaks checks his option with 
.
On the 
flop, De Oliveira leads out with a bet of 500,000, which Zaks calls.
On the 
turn, De Oliveira slides out a bet of 1,500,000. Zaks takes some time for thought before calling.
The 
hits on the river to give De Oliveira the straight. He jams for 3,500,000. Zaks goes into the tank, eyeing his opponent, and De Oliveira thinks Zaks has called when he puts in a time bank. De Oliveira seems desperate to turn over his cards but realises at the last moment Zaks hasn’t called and pulls back, giving off a big physical tell. That perhaps eventually persuades Zaks to fold.
Etienne Silva De Oliveira – 8,700,000 (21 bb)
Kostya Zaks – 10,000,000 (50 bb)
