Meran Forces Fold From Baumstein
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
In a preflop three-bet pot to the 
turn with some 47,000 in the middle, Scott Baumstein had bet 19,400 out of the small blind in the last hand before the break. Alberto Meran on the button then pushed all-in for 161,600 and that sent Baumstein into the tank for more than five minutes.
Some three minutes into the break, Baumstein folded and the pot was pushed to Meran. Chance Kornuth was trying to get Meran to show his cards but that request was denied, and guessing the cards only resulted in some friendly table chatter.
