Kaspars Butans min-raised on the button with 9♣7♣ and Mounir Tajiou, keeping his aggressive image, three-bet with Q♥6♦ to 1,300,000. Butans made the call to see the flop.
A good flop for the Latvian on 9♦J♣8♠ board. Tajiou sized a big bet of 1.5 million into a 2.8 million pot, but Butans has no problem calling.
Board pairing on J♠ turn makes Butans’ hand even stronger, and Tajiou decided to check. Butans bet 1.2 million and this time, Tajiou didn’t stick around to see the river.
Mounir Tajiou – 19,000,000
Kaspars Butans – 17,000,000
