Second Hand, Second Three-Bet`

Well, we're loving this early aggression. In the second hand of the day, we had our second three-bet. Fraser Macintyre raised to 65,000 in early position, and Bruno Lopes flatted next door. One more seat over, Andrei Stoenescu liked his cards enough to squeeze in a reraise to 195,000 total. Macintyre called, Lopes folded, and Stoenescu mistakenly threw his cards out toward the muck. They landed just about in the middle of the table, and the dealer froze the cards there while she queried the floor.
T.D. Toby allowed Stoenescu to have his cards back with a small word of caution, and it was heads-up to the flop. It came 
. Stoenescu continued out with a small bet of 167,000, but his bet would not get through. Macintyre check-raised to 400,000 straight, and the Romanian tanked and folded.
