Foggin Ramps Up the Aggression as Tournament Drags on For Weary Survivors
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
A friend approached Jim Collopy and asked him what tournament he was playing.
"We started last week. It was October when it started," Collopy said in jest
"It was definitely August," a tournament official joked.
"I have 70 bigs. It's a crazy tournament," Collopy added.
Anatoly Nikitin then raised to 80,000 in the hijack and was called by Ezra Abu Gazal on the button and Marc Foggin in the big blind.
The flop came 10♣6♠3♣ and Nikitin bet 100,000. Abu Gazal called, but Foggin then raised to 425,000. Both opponents folded.
The next hand, Abu Gazal raised to 80,000 in the cutoff and Collopy called on the button. Foggin three-bet to 400,000 in the small blind, and again got no callers.
