Bechahed Applies the Pressure

By August 10, 2025No Comments

Blinds: 100,000/200,000

Jonah Lopas limped the small blind, and Sami Bechahed bumped it up to 600,000. Lopas called, and they saw a flop of [10c][8s][3s] come down. Lopas check called a bet of 875,000, only to see Bechahed shove the [Jh] turn after he checked.

Lopas went deep into the tank, as the bet was for the 4,800,000 effective he had behind. John Misirian was on the sideline watching as the short stack, as over four minutes drained from the clock. Eventually, he called the clock on Lopas, who thought for about 20 seconds into the clock before releasing his hand, giving another pot to Bechahed.
