Hero-Call Gone Wrong
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Roman Stoica tossed in a raise to 160,000 in the cutoff, and David Djian opted to defend in the big blind. Stoica bet 175,000 on the J♣3♦7♠ flop, and Djian quickly check-called.
Both players then checked the 5♠ turn, leading to the Q♦ emerging from the deck on the river. Djian checked a third time, but Stoica assembled a bet of 325,000 and put it over the line.
Djian seriously considered his options, shuffling his remaining time banks before spending one and making the call.
Stoica showed down K♦J♦ for second pair, and Djian's A♦2♥ for an ace-high call was returned to the muck face down.
