Pettit's Stack Grows
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
A player limped from the hijack and Brendan Pettit responded with a shove for his last 155,000 from the small blind. Just behind him, Dean Blatt also moved all in for more, which got a fold from the limper to set up a showdown between himself and Pettit.
Brendan Pettit: A♣J♦
Dean Blatt: K♥J♥
It was unfortunate timing from Blatt, who isolated himself against the dominating hand of Pettit.
The 9♥3♣6♣5♠Q♦ runout improved neither player, which meant a full double up for Pettit with his ace.
"Now I can't eliminate anybody..." Blatt lamented after handing a portion of his stack over to Pettit.
