Big Fold by Imperatore
Level 41
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Valentin Imperatore raised to 800,000 from under the gun, then Aliosha Staes in the small blind three-bet to 3,100,000. Benjamnn Hammann in the big blind folded 2♠2♥, so the action went back to Imperatore who called.
The dealer fanned a flop of 2♣7♣A♥ and Staes continued for 2,800,000. Imperatore called.
Both players checked the 9♣ turn leading to the 7♠ river where Aliosha put all his white chips in front of him, for a total of 6,500,000. Imperatore went deep into the tank, but eventually folded A♣Q♦. Aliosha had A♦K♥.
