Oliver and Tsakalakos Tangle in Successive Hands
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
A chunky pot of 40,000 had developed by the river on a board of A♣K♦9♥3♣4♥, in a hand between Robert Oliver and Dimitrios Tsakalakos.
Tsakalakos fired out a bet of 25,000, and after a brief period of deliberation, Oliver folded.
In the next hand, Tsakalakos limped under the gun, and Oliver raised to 700, receiving calls from the big blind and Tsakalakos.
The flop came Q♦8♦7♦, and was checked through to the 3♦ turn, where action was checked to Oliver. He fired out a bet of 2,000, and only Tsakalakos called.
On the 7♠ river, Tsakalakos check-folded versus an overbet of 10,000 from Oliver, who flashed the A♦ after his opponent folded.
