Iaculli Applies Pressure
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Florian Dos Santos Pires opened in early position and received calls from Gianfranco Iaculli in middle position, Laurent Michot in the cutoff and Mario Adinolfi in the big blind.
On the A♥J♠3♠ flop, Pires continued with a bet of 27,000, only to be faced with a raise to 75,000 from Iaculli. Michot and Adinolfi got out of the way, and Pires went into the tank.
After some thought, and with the bubble approaching, Pires mucked his hand. Pires asked his opponent to show one, but he politely declined.
