Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Nikolay Fal raised the button to 200,000 and Fausto Tantillo called from the big blind.
On the 9♦3♣2♦ flop, Tantillo check-called a bet of 175,000 from Fal to the 9♥ turn, where they both checked.
When the 3♠ fell on the river, Tantillo put out a bet of 675,000, which made Fal ponder. After some time, Fal flicked in a call, and Tantillo showed hiim 5♥5♣ for a pair of fives.
Fal responded by showing a pair of eights with 8♠8♦, earning him the pot and half of the chips in play.
