The Limp That Grew into a Near Amputation

Panayote 'Pete' Vilandos limped in from the SB and Glenn McCaffrey checked his option to see a {4-Hearts} {10-Spades} {5-Diamonds}. Vilandos led out for 100,000 only to see it raised to 275,000. Vilandos was having none of it though as he reraised to 1.01 million.

A long tank from McCaffery followed, but he let it go and showed the {10-Clubs}. Vilandos made him feel better about it by opening {10-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} for two-pair.
