Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
In a three-bet pot worth around 3,000,000, Gerard Carbo checked in middle position to Scott Margereson in the cutoff, who placed a continuation-bet of 550,000 on the A♦2♠6♠ flop.
Carbo called to the 4♣ turn, where he check-called again, this time for the amount of 1,250,000.
The 8♥ river was quickly checked to showdown. Carbo tabled A♥Q♣ for top pair, making Margereson nod his head and muck his cards.
