Bulgaria’s Ivan Ivanov opened to 25,000 from the Cut-off and was then faced with a 90,000 three-bet from Francisco Garrido Cruz in the Big Blind. Ivanov snap-called the raise.
Cruz pondered for a minute before continuing for 50,000 on the 3♥A♠8♠ flop. Again, Ivanov made the call faster than the speed of lightning. Cruz checked the 5♠ turn, and Ivanov checked back within a split second. The exact same scenario played out on the J♠ river.
Francisco Garrido Cruz: K♦J♦
Ivan Ivanov: A♣Q♣
Maybe Ivanov has somewhere to be and wanted to speed up the game. Hopefully for him, it’s going to be a long night until he reaches the final table.
Francisco Garrido Cruz: 1,300,000
Ivan Ivanov: 578,000
