Erlandsson Breaches Million Mark
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Picking the action up on a board of 5♠3♣K♥J♥ in a pot between Daniel Erlandsson and Samuel Fournier with 230,000 in the middle, Fournier check-called a bet of 70,000 from his opponent.
On the 9♠ river Fournier again checked to Erlandsson. Erlandsson moved all in for over 700,000, putting Fournier (who had about 400,000 behind) at risk if he called.
Fournier took a considerable period of time mulling over his decision. He asked if his opponent had jacks, and after folding, told Erlandsson if it was a bluff, it was a good one. Erlandsson meanwhile increased his stack to just over 1,000,000.
