Prendergast Puts Gisolfi to the Test
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Michael Prendergast raised to 800,000 from the cutoff, which only Francesco Gisolfi called in the big blind.
On a K♥9♠3♠ flop, Gisolfi check-called a bet of 500,000.
The turn brought the 4♦, and this time Gisolfi check-called a more substantial 2,100,000.
There was no slowing down from Prendergast on the K♦ river. When Gisolfi checked for a third time, he moved all in, covering Gisolfi's stack of 3,725,000.
Gisolfi used a time extension whilst deciding the best course of action, and then called.
Prendergast flipped over 8♣7♣, which was no good versus the K♠5♦ of Gisolfi.
