Defending Champion Off to Good Start
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Diego Rodriguez Cantillana limped in from middle position. Sander Eentalu completed his small blind before last year's Coolbet Open Main Event winner Anders Bjorkheim raised to 1,200 in the big blind.
Both Rodriguez and Eentalu called, and a flop of 8♥7♥J♠ was fanned. Eentalu checked to Bjorkheim, who continued for 1,300. Rodriguez made a quick fold, but Eentalu called to the 4♥ turn, where he led out for 2,500.
Bjorkheim called, and the 7♣ river completed the board. After Eentalu checked, Bjorkheim piled in a massive bet of 15,000.
Eentalu snap-called, but he tapped the table and mucked his cards when Bjorkheim showed J♣J♦ for the best possible full house, dragging the big pot shortly after sitting down.
