Atallah Takes On the Big Stack
Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Michel Atallah quickly jumped back into the field after losing the massive three-way all in to George Iota earlier and soon after found himself tangled in a pot with another big stack, Yilu Yuan.
Atallah raised to 2,500 in early position, Yuan three-bet to 9,100 in the small blind, and Atallah called. Yuan checked the K♥K♦8♠ flop and Atallah bet 10,000. Yuan called.
The turn was the A♦ and Atallah bet another 25,000. Yuan this time raised to 60,000 and Atallah quickly called. Yuan checked the 7♥ river and Atallah fired out 75,000.
Yuan gave up the pot and Atallah raked in the chips as he's nearly tripled his stacking stack on his second bullet.
