Kapeller’s Aggression Forces Ruggeri to Fold
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
In the final hand before the break, Umberto Ruggeri opened the action with a raise to 50,000 from early position, and Siegfried Kapeller defended from the big blind.
Both players checked the Q♥3♦9♣ flop, keeping the pot modest.
The 10♣ turn brought some fireworks as Kapeller check-raised Ruggeri’s 65,000 bet to 205,000. After some deliberation, Ruggeri made the call.
When the 9♠ landed on the river, Kapeller moved all in for around 2,200,000. Ruggeri tanked, using two time bank cards, but ultimately folded, conceding the sizable pot to Kapeller.
