Kostelac Applies the Pressure

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
John Kostelac
John Kostelac

Joseph Crowley raised to 2,200 in early position and John Kostelac flatted in middle position.

The flop came 296 and Crowley check-called a bet of 2,000 from Kostelac.

The turn landed the 9 and Crowley check-called again, this time for 5,000.

The river brought the Q and Crowley checked once more. Kostelac sized up with a bet of 17,000, prompting Crowley to go into the tank. After some thought, Crowley eventually tossed his cards into the muck.
