Malinov in the Mix
Level 34
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Marco Gambini got involved for the first time today, opening K♣10♠ from the button to 600,000. Chip leader Atanas Malinov called with 6♥4♣ from the button.
Both players paired up on the A♦10♦4♣ flop, and Malinov check-called for 500,000. Gambini continued his aggression on the 9♥ turn, firing out 650,000 which folded out Malinov.
The following hand, Malinov looked down at A♦10♦ from the small blind and made it 1,050,000. Virgile Turchic defended his big blind with K♣9♥.
The Q♥8♠7♥ flop saw Malinov check, and Turchi bet 700,000. Malinov called. The Q♣ turn paired the board and action checked through to the 2♥ river. Malinov had the best hand and checked. Turchi checked back and Malinov recouped some of his chips that went to Gambini.
