Tantillo Chipping Up

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Daniel Rezaei opened to 5,500 from under the gun and was called by Fausto Tantillo in the cutoff. Action then folded to the small blind, who opted to three-bet to 24,000. Rezaei reluctantly folded while Tantillo made the call to send the two players heads-up to the flop.

The small blind continued for 8,000 following the {2-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{j-Spades} flop and Tantillo quickly called.

After the {3-Clubs} hit the felt on the turn, the small blind continued his earlier aggression with another bet, this time sizing up to 27,000. Once again, Tantillo just called.

The {3-Hearts} river paired the board and at this point the small blind did slow down, checking to Tantillo who, after a few moments thought, moved all in. It did not take long for the small blind to release his holding and send a large pot over towards Tantillo.
