Tungel's Stack on the Rise
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
It's been a great opening level for Lars Tungel, who has grown his stack to around 1,800,000. A chunk of those chips came in a hand against Andre Plaza Marcano.
Tungel opened the button to 25,000 and Marcano flicked in the call from the big blind. They went to a flop of A♣A♥Q♥, where Marcano check-called a bet of 25,000 from Tungel.
Both checked the 7♠ turn to the 10♣ river, where Marcano led for 40,000. Tungel was having none of it and raised to 125,000, which Marcano quickly called.
Tungel then showed that he rivered a straight with K♠J♣, and Marcano binned his cards.
