Zaffagnini Sends Eychenne into the Blender
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
First, Julian Pineda Lozano made it 500,000 from the cutoff with A♣6♥, and then folded after Tomasz Brzezinski three-bet the button to 1,350,000 with A♣K♣.
A couple of hands later, Thomas Eychenne opened 10♦8♦ from the cutoff, and Umberto Zaffagnini three-bet to 1,400,000 out of the small blind holding A♥9♠.
Both players checked the 7♣J♦8♣ flop to see the 10♥ roll off on the turn. Zaffagnini fired a bet of 1,200,000, which Eychenne called.
A 7♠ dropped on the river, and Zaffagnini fired almost a pot-sized bet of 4,000,000. Eychenne went deep into the tank and was visibly distressed by the spot he was in. After burning through around five of his time banks, Eychenne folded, and Zaffagnini was awarded the pot.
