Ahman’s Six-Bet Gets the Job Done!

Andrey Shatilov opens the betting from UTG+1 with a raise to 250 and it looks like nobody wants to tangle with him. That is until the action reaches Frenchman Alban Juen on the button, who calls. The small blind gets out of the way but Meelis Ahman squeezes to 1,150 to put the focus back onto Shatilov.

Shatilov, who finished sixth at WPT Cyprus in Season 10, four-bet to 2,650 under the watchful eye of his opponents. Despite just calling the initial opening raise, Juen now five-bets to 5,750 which brings a wry smile to Shatilov’s face.

“Five?” asks Ahman before the dealer confirms the raise amount is to 5,750 in total. With that new information processed Ahman six-bets an additional 12,000 chips and both of his opponents’ cards hit the muck in record time!
