Malpelli Check-Raises Binder

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Bernhard Binder put in 80,000 on the button, and Jose Malpelli defended in the big blind. Malpelli check-called Binder's continuation-bet of 55,000 on the Q102 flop, after which both players knuckled the table on the 8 turn.

Malpelli also checked the 5 river, but Binder reaggressed with a bet of 225,000. After some thought, Malpelli raised to 625,000. Binder weighed his options, but decided to fold to forfeit the pot to Malpelli.
