Macchia Drags a Big One
Level 18
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Lewis Spencer opened 120,000 in the hijack and Nacho Barbero called in the cutoff before Michael Macchia came along from the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of J♠6♥4♣, and the action checked to Barbero who fired a bet of 125,000. Macchia check-raised to 350,000, forcing Spencer out and Barbero made the call.
The Q♠ fell on the turn, and Macchia continued with aggression, cutting out a bet of 400,000. Barbero thought about it for a few moments before mucking his hand.
