Ladev Applies Pressure to Maeda
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Markkos Ladev opened to 3,000 from early position and Akinobu Maeda defended his big blind.
On the K?8?7? flop, Ladev continued for 5,500 into a pot of 8,500 and Maeda quickly called.
The turn brought the 5?. Ladev kept up the pressure as he bet 11,000 and Maeda took some time before he called.
The Q? peeled off on the river. Maeda checked for a third time and Ladev bet enough to put Maeda all-in for 16,500 effective. Maeda was dubious but he opted to reluctantly folded in the end as Ladev's aggression won him the pot without showdown.
