Bianchi Gets Thin Value on River

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Hamid Izadi opened to 120,000 on the button, and Paul Bianchi opted to three-bet to 280,000 in the big blind. Izadi called.

The dealer spread {8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{10-Hearts} on the flop, and Bianchi continued with a downbet of 240,000. Izadi called again.

The {4-Hearts} hit the felt on the turn, and Bianchi fired 440,000. The two were off to a river after Izadi matched it.

With the {a-Spades} river on the board, Bianchi bet yet again, this time for 750,000. Izadi tank-called, after which Bianchi showed {k-Spades}{j-Hearts} for a flopped top pair that bravely kept firing on an unideal runout. Izadi mucked, and Bianchi pulled in the pot, closing in on five million chips.
