"ILUCKuHARD" and Gottlieb Chip Up
Level 40
: 125,000/250,000, 30,000 ante
"ILUCKuHARD" opened to 625,000 out of the small blind, which Pedro Garagnani called from the big blind. On a 
flop, Garagnani opted for a check-call worth 342,500 and checked again the 
turn. "ILUCKuHARD" now made it 1,125,000 to go and that shut down the resistance of the Brazilian.
Two hands later, Garagnani raised the button and Lev "LevMeAlone" Gottlieb called in the big blind. The 
flop resulted in a check-call for 367,500 by Gottlieb, which led them to the 
turn. Both checked this time and Gottlieb bet the pot for 1.98 million on the river to force a fold.
After the hand, the remaining four players headed into a scheduled five-minute break.
