Bittar Wins Massive Raising War and Shows

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

On a {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{6-Hearts} board with roughly 1,000,000 in the pot, Kamal Bittar checked the big blind, and Jorge Hou bet 855,000 in early position. Bittar then check-raised to 2,075,000 to send his opponent into the tank. After some time, Hou raised to 5,150,000, only for Bittar to raise yet again, covering Hou's stack of approximately 3,500,000 behind. Hou again went into the tank and ultimately, laid down his hand.

Bittar leapt up from his seat and slammed down {7-Spades}{5-Hearts} onto the felt as he walked away from the table while talking to himself, clearly energized from the huge hand which rocketed him into the chip lead.
