Castriotta Pressures Chaoui
Level 23
: 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Mehdi Chaoui raised to 55,000 from under the gun and Angelo Castriotta three-bet to 125,000 from the cutoff. The button and blinds got out of the way and Chaoui went into the tank.
After some chatter with his opponent, Chaoui picked up his cards to fold.
"I will fold this time. I will fold. But next time I go all in," Chaoui said with a smile as he tossed his cards in the muck.
Chaoui is looking for a big day so he can make a run at his first EPT title after a red-hot 2022 where he has two victories and four second place finishes at poker tournaments throughout France.
