Cold Five-Bet from Vieira
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
To kick off the action, Rob Mizrachi raised from under the gun to 25,000. Play then moved to Philipp Gruissem in the cutoff seat, and he reraised to 65,000. Then action fell on Dani Stern, who had the button. He took his time, then put in a reraise of his own, making it 130,000 to go. Not to be outdone, Joao Vieira from the small blind had even bigger things in mind.
Vieira took a minute or so to study, and then stuck in a cold five-bet, announcing a reraise to 280,000.
"I think I'll fold!" was the laughing reaction from Paul Newey in the big blind.
Mizrachi then gave it up, as did Gruissem, and play was back on Stern. He took only about 30 seconds and then gave it up himself, and Vieira won the pot.
