Hajdari Puts Mertengren to the Test
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Fehim Hajdari opened the action to 2,000 from under the gun and received calls from Andrija Cvetkovic, Stefan Egermann, and Andriy Mertengren in the big blind.
The flop came 10♣3♠4♦, and the action was checked to Egermann, who bet 3,600. Mertengren called, but Hajdari had other plans and raised to 8,800. Both Cvetkovic and Egermann folded, and Mertengren called.
The K♣ appeared on the turn, and Mertengren checked. Hajdari chose to make a smaller bet of 3,000, which Mertengren called.
The 9♣ completed the board. After Mertengren checked, Hajdari pushed all his chips into the middle and Mertengren quickly folded.
