Castaldi Forced to Fold Top Pair
Level 2
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Around 1,400 was in the middle on a flop of A♥K♣2♠, and the big blind checked to Benjamin Castaldi in the cutoff, who fired out a bet of 1,400. Only Herve Martinage called on the button.
The 5♦ hit on the turn, and Castaldi double-barreled, this time with a bet of 2,200. Martinage again called.
The 4♠ river completed the board, and Castaldi checked to his opponent. Martinage quickly fired out an overbet of 12,000, and Castaldi looked pained.
After a brief exchange of words between the two, Castaldi smiled and open-folded the A♦.
