Polito Goes One for Two
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Laurent Polito and Miroslav Rizov were heads up on the J♥5♣7♥ flop. Polito flicked in a bet of 50,000 in the cutoff, which Rizov called on the button.
The A♥ turn then checked through to the Q♣ river, where Polito reaggressed with a bet of 100,000. Rizov instantly called with A♠K♣, besting the K♠J♦ of Polito to win the pot.
One hand later, Polito had opened from the hijack, and Leonard Maue had defended his big blind. Polito then continued for 75,000 on the 9♠10♣8♥ flop, and Maue check-called.
Both players checked the 3♠ turn, prompting Maue to bet the minimum of 25,000 on the Q♦ river. Poltio slid in a raise to 255,000, and Maue made a reluctant fold to surrender the pot.
