Pagano Climbing Once Again
Luca Pagano is back up to around 77,000 chips after he gave a lesson in pot control to EPT Tallin Champion, Kevin Stani.
It was Kevin MacPhee who opened the betting with a 700 raise from early position, a raise that Stani three-bet to 2,400 and Pagano, next to act, flat-called. Everyone else folded back to MacPhee and he made the call.
Flop: - MacPhee checked, Stani made it 4,800 to play, Pagano smooth called the bet and MacPhee got out of the way.
Turn: - Stani was in no mood for slowing down and he put a bet of 6,700 into the already swollen pot. Once again Pagano simply called.
River: - After being called preflop, on the flop and on the turn Stani now checked and Pagano checked behind, though he turned over which was enough to win the hand and boost him to 77,000, whilst Stani dropped to 29,500
