Malpelli Exercises Caution
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Jose Malpelli raised to 100,000 from the hijack, which only Bernhard Binder called in the big blind.
On a 10♥4♥J♦ flop, Binder check-called a bet of 150,000 before action checked through on the 3♣ turn card.
The K♣ completed the board, and when Binder checked for a third time, Malpelli checked back.
Malpelli flipped over K♠J♠ for two pair, and Binder mucked his cards.
