Earl Shoves on Mamo
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 15,000 ante
Rudy Mamo opened to 75,000 in the hijack, with Dominic Esparza calling on the button and Jacob Earl defending his big blind.
Earl checked the 8♦2♠Q♦ flop, and Mamo continued for 150,000. Esparza quickly got out of the way before Earl announced a check-raise and moved all in for 550,000.
"Why didn't you shove preflop?" asked Mamo as he contemplated his decision.
After taking some time, Mamo opted to fold while turning over J♠J♦. Earl raked in the pot, declining Mamo's appeal to show his cards.
