Balci Ramps Up Aggression
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Dorel Eldabach bet the 8♣7♥4♦ flop for 36,000 from under the gun and Lautaro Guerra called from one seat over. Ali Balci then potted to 225,000 and Guerra was the only caller.
Guerra check-called the 5♠ turn for 200,000 and instantly checked the 3♥ river and Balci darted out of his chair, pacing around it before he sighed and grabbed into his stack.
Balci took another half a minute and then bet 500,000. Guerra snap-folded and Balci grabbed his cards, smashing them on the felt. Whether or not he meant to show or muck was unclear but none of them were revealed as he instantly clarified "no acting".
"Nuts for sure," Fahredin Mustafov replied and Eldabach joked "I have never seen that before".
