Maklouf Pushing Up The Leaderboard

John Maklouf entered the pot from middle position with a raise to 600 and found a caller from a short-stack in the big blind.

Both players checked the {6-Spades}{7-Spades}{J-Diamonds} flop before the big blind fired out 1,025 when the turn landed the {K-Clubs}.

"How much have you got left?" asked Maklouf.

His opponent looked down at what remained of his stack before stating that a yellow chip - or a 5,000 one - would be enough.

Maklouf followed that response by tossing in a single 5,000-denomination chip, but it was ruled as a call as there was no announcement of an indication of a raise.

The dealer dropped the {6-Hearts} on the river and once his opponent checked, Maklouf fired out 3,000 only to force his opponent to fold.

Maklouf picked up the pot and moved to 55,000 in chips.
