Small Pots Grow Big Fast

Level 15 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

What started out as a small pot (Mike McDonald limped in from the small blind, Mikita Badziakouski checked his big blind), soon got really big.

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and McDonald bet out 40,000. Badziakouski raised to 100,000 and McDonald called. McDonald check called another 125,000 on the {J-Clubs} turn after a short (but intense) stare down.

The river came the {7-Spades} and McDonald checked again, still keeping his focus on his neighbor. Badziakouski bet out 250,000 with just 227,000 behind. McDonald tanked for a bit and then moved all in. Badziakouski sighed and folded.
