After a pair of late position limps, Bekim Murtezi raises to 2,400 in the small blind which gets a call from Sae-Jaw Siwanath in the big blind as well as the limpers, Yana Portman in the hijack and Florian Brietschmid on the button.

The quartet sees a flop of Spade 6Club 2Heart 10 and Murtezi leads out for 6,600 which gets calls from Siwanath and Portman.

On the Heart A turn, after a check from Murtezi, Siwanath bets 12,000 which gets called by Portman. Murtezi then moves all in for about 75,000. 

Siwanath has him covered but elects to fold. Portman takes her time deciding whether to commit her remaining 24,000 chips and then opts to hold onto them, sending her cards to the muck as the dealer sends the sizeable pot to Murtezi.

Bekim Murtezi – 129,000 (215 bb)
Sae-Jaw Siwanath – 114,000 (190 bb)
Florian Breitschhmid – 32,500 (54 bb)
Yana Portman – 24,000 (40 bb)
