Sitbon Triples Up, Has Six Bigs

Julien Sitbon was down to a single T-1,000 chip and already made that ten times as much, sitting on a stack of 10,000. He put all of those chips in the middle from middle position. The action folded to the blinds David Hareuveni and Loic Dobrigna, who both called.

The flop came 5♠4♥10♣ and Hareuveni checked to Dobrigna. Dobrigna wanted to create a side pot and bet 12,000, which Hareuveni swiftly called. The turn was 2♥ and again Hareuveni checked, followed by a bet of 25,000 from Dobrigna. Hareuveni was again present with an instantaneous call.

As the Q♠ river fell, Hareuveni grabbed a stack of chips and put them in the middle. Dobrigna shook his head at the 65,000 bet and reluctantly let his hand go.

Meanwhile Sitbon thanked his opponent for ''the bluff'' as he tabled his 10♦9♦. Heuveni showed him A♦4♦ for a lower pair and thus Sitbon tripled his stack to a slightly more favorable size. Hareuveni was the biggest winner, however, scooping the sizable side pot.
