Ionita Calls Off Against Gicovanu
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Marius Gicovanu three-bet to 24,000 in the hijack and Sebastian Ionita called in middle position.
The flop came 9♣9♠J♦ and Gicovanu continued for 38,000. Ionita called to see the 4♠ turn and checked over to Gicovanu again.
Gicovanu this time fired out 123,000 and Ionita used up a time bank before he called. The river came the 6♣ and Gicovanu then moved all in.
Ionita, with around 200,000 remaining, again used a time bank before he called for his last chips. Gicovanu opened up K♠K♥ and Ionita turned over 10♥10♣ before making his exit.
"Smelled like tens," a tablemate said.
