Compte's Bold Move Wins Big Pot
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Christopher Brammer opened the action with a raise to 160,000 from under the gun. Friedrich Raez, in the cutoff, and Sebastien Compte, on the button, both called, leading to a three-way flop.
The 4♥3♥5♦ board came down, and all players checked to Compte, who took the initiative with a 130,000 bet. Only Raez decided to continue, calling the bet.
The Q♦ hit the turn, and after Raez checked, Compte bet 280,000. Raez responded with a raise to 650,000, but Compte wasn't backing down. He went all in for 1,320,000, putting Raez in a tough spot. After a long pause, Raez decided to fold, giving up the large pot to Compte.
