Big Stacks Fight Hard
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Francesco Delfoco opened to 23,000 from middle position, and he was called by both players in the blinds.
On a board of K♣A♣2♣, Delfoco continued with a bet of 27,000. The small blind folded, but chip leader Niclas Mjelstad called in the big blind.
The 10♦ came on the turn, and Delfoco fired a second barrel of 56,000. After a few seconds, Mjelstad raised to 135,000 and put Delfoco into the tank.
He thought about his decision for two minutes, and eventually chose to fold.
On the next hand, after a player opened from under the gun, Mjelstad called in the small blind. But in the big blind, Piroozi raised all in for a massive 930,000. The initial raiser folded, and Mjelstad eventually folded too.
