Manesh Calls Down Macaluso
Level 36
: Blinds 70,000/140,000, 140,000 ante
Luigi Macaluso raised to 500,000 from the button, an above-average opening size at this level in the tournament. Kasra Rashidi Manesh, in the big blind, defended.
Manesh check-called a bet of 700,000 from Macaluso on the 5♦4♠3♦ flop.
The J♣ turn checked through to the K♣ on the river. Both players checked to a showdown. Manesh tabled 9♥5♥ for a pair of fives, which was enough to take down this pot.
