The EPT Prague National High Roller Champion, Yaniv Peretz is in the house. The Latvian has just lost a pot to Timur Kurbanov but is still sitting around starting stack.
Ruslan Lukash kicked things off with a raise to 500 on the button and Peretz three-bet to 2,200 in the small blind. Kurbanov flat called in the big blind and Lukash passed, leaving the blinds to play it out.
The flop fell and both players checked. On the turn, Peretz checked again and Kurbanov bet 2,800, which Peretz called.
There was a on the river and it went check- call once more, this time for 5,000 but Peretz mucked when Kurbanov tabled
