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 Q♠10♣2♦ 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.
