Micallef Amasses More Chips
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
On a flop of 9♥Q♣4♥, Matthew Micallef checked to Petr Zalsky, who then went on to make a bet of an unknown amount. Micallef called and the J♦ turn was dealt.
Micallef checked again and Zalsky put in 12,500 chips. Micallef responded with a jam, and Zalsky quickly threw in his entire stack of around 30,000 chips to put himself at risk.
Petr Zalsky: J♥J♣
Matthew Micallef: K♠10♦
Micallef's straight held as the 5♠ river did not upgrade Zalsky's set to a full house. Zalsky headed to the exit while Micallef chipped up further, playing more than three times the average stack.
