Guerreiro Makes the Right Fold
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Polo Santoni opened from the hijack and was called by Tony Prenveille in the small blind. In the big blind, Jose Guerreiro squeezed to 12,000 and both opponents called.
Three ways to a 6♠5♣3♥ flop, Guerreiro continued for 25,000, Santoni quickly called, and Prenveille folded.
On the 7♦ turn, Guerreiro did not slow down as he fired for 50,000. Instantaneously, Santoni announced all-in for 170,000 as the smaller of the two stacks. Guerreiro thought for a while before the clock was called and he eventually decided to fold.
Santoni tabled A♦4♦ for a turned straight and Guerreiro made the correct fold to preserve his stack.
