Magdan Goes For The Overbet
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
In a blind on blind confrontation, action was picked up on the river with 7,400 in the center between Buck Bucceri in the small blind and Alec Magdan in the big blind.
The board read 8♠4♣3♦Q♦2♠ and Bucceri checked over to Magdan who bet 9,000. Bucceri squirmed around in his chair as he contemplated his decision before ultimately grabbing 9,000 and putting it into the middle.
Magdan turned over 6♥5♠ for a six-high straight, which was good for the pot against Bucceri's J♦8♣ for a pair of eights.
Only one player so far has secured the double bag bonus of $3,000 and Magdan is here today to try to take the bigger bonus of $5,000 for putting chips in the bag a third time.
