Petrangelo Takes Down a Big One

Level 15 : 10,000/25,000, 24,500 ante

The play has been rather slow over the course of the level as the players teetered on the bubble. Just before the clock ran out on the level a big pot ignited between Benjamin Pollak and Nick Petrangelo.

Nick opened under-the-gun and Pollak defended his big blind. The flop came {5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and both players checked. Pollak led out with the bet of 90,000 when the {4-Clubs} hit on the turn and Petrangelo flatted.

The {10-Hearts} completed the board on the river and Pollak slid out a big bet worth 300,000. Petrangelo hated the bet but would make the call. Pollak tabled the {q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Petrangelo easily beat the bluff with the {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}.
