Gargiulo Can Fold No More
Pot-Limit Omaha
Bjorn Gravlien bet 100,000 from under the gun and was called by Sridhar Sangannagari in middle position and Georgios Kryiakidis in the small blind. The action was on Joseph Gargiulo in the big blind who would be all in with an under-call of 80,000.
Gargiulo said "Boy, I guess I am priced in" then stalled for about a minute and quipped "I can't believe how much money I have made today by folding!" and put their remaining chips into the middle.
The flop came J♥6♥2♦ and all three active players checked. The Q♣ fell on the turn and Kryiakidis bet 50,000. Gravilen responded with a pot-sized bet of 565,000. Sangannagari and Kryiakidis opted to fold.
Joseph Gargiulo: A♣Q♠3♥2♠
Bjorn Gravlien: Q♠J♦10♠10♦
Both players had two pair, with the Norweigan having the better of it with queens and jacks. The 4♥ completed the board which sent Gargiulo to the payout cage.
