Pillay Gets Shorter
Level 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Alvin Pillay had lost more than half of his stack throughout many pots and limped from under the gun, Rajeev Poonhath did so from the small blind and Russel Wheatley checked in the big blind. On the A♣9♣9♦ flop, only Pillay check-called a bet of 10,000 by Pillay.
They checked down the Q♥ turn and 5♣ river for Pillay to win the pot with the A♦7♥.
