Demasi Finds Big River Call
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Simone Demasi opened to 60,000 from middle position, and was met with a three-bet to 135,000 from Flavius Vlasiu in the cutoff. Action folded back to Demasi, who called.
On the J♠10♦5♥ flop, Demasi check-called in the face of a bet of 50,000 from Vlasiu.
The 9♥ turn was checked through to the A♠ river, where Demasi checked once more. Vlasiu fired out a bet of 225,000, leaving himself only 5,000 behind.
Demasi took some time for thought, but ultimately flicked in a calling chip. Vlasiu tabled A♥2♥ for a pair of aces, but Demasi was good with 10♣9♣ for two pair.
Vlasiu was left with crumbs, and busted a couple of hands later.
