Grafton Pressures Plausinaitis
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With two players seeing a board reading A♠9♣5♠ and 53,000 in the middle, Sam Grafton bet 16,000 from the small blind and Paulius Plausinaitis called from the big blind.
Grafton fired again on the 4♦ turn, this time sizing up with an 80,000 bet. Plausinaitis made the call.
On the J♠ river Grafton moved all in for 225,000 and this time it was enough to force a fold from the Day 1 chip leader.
