Valeriy Pak Eliminates Suren Balachandran

Valeriy Pak

With 120,000 in the middle to the Heart 7Diamond 6Heart 4 flop, Suren Balachandran is all-in for the last 9,000 chips. Valeriy Pak does not snap-call and there is some table chat that Pak is waiting whether or not another player busts two away from the money. One time bank extension vanishes and Pak then calls with the far bigger stack.

On the Club 8 turn, the rest of the table is calling for a five for “nice guy” Balachandran but the Heart 2 river ends his run just shy of the prize money.
