Battle of the Bigs

Max Steinberg can't seem to avoid a pot and why should he, every pot he plays he seems to win. recently we caught him raising it up to 35,000 from the cut-off. Joseph Marzicola made the call from the button, as did Matt Stout from the small blind.

The flop came {6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} prompting a check from Sout. Steinberg wasn't going to allow any checks and bet out 50,000. Marzicola raised and made it 150,000. Stout folded and Steinberg made the call.

The {8-Diamonds} on the turn slowed Steinberg down and he checked. Marzicola however bet out, making it 250,000. Steinberg made the call and both players were witness to the {a-Diamonds} on the river. Both players thought enough betting had taken place and they knuckled for checks.

Marzicola flipped over {A-Hearts}{k-Spades} for top two pair and that was enough to take it down.
