Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

From an early position, Mathieu Di Meglio raised to 4,000. Robbie Jade Lew in middle position called, but the big blind raised to 18,000. Di Meglio was the only one to call.

On 3QA, the small blind bet 8,500, and added another 19,000 on the turn K. On both streets, Di Meglio called. But when his opponent slowed down by checking the river J, the Frenchman moved all in for 62,000.
