Stoica Shortest Stack After Folding to Malpelli

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Jose Malpelli raised his 109 to 200,000 in the hijack. It folded to Roman Stoica on the button, who three-bet to 500,000 with AJ. Malpelli called after some thought, after which the 924 flop was fanned.

After Malpelli checked, Stoica piled in a bet of 350,000. Malpelli called to the 4 turn, where both players checked in quick succession.

Malpelli then moved all in for 2,100,000 when the J hit the river, putting around a pot-sized bet in the middle. Stoica spent one of his time banks before he folded top pair, and Malpelli was awarded the pot.
