Madene Takes More From Davidou Than Expected
Level 44
: 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
In a 13,400,000-chip pot on a board of 4♠K♦K♥5♦2♠, Nolan Madene in the big blind built two piles to bet nearly his entire stack. However, as he began pushing them forward, a large part of the chips fell. Despite that, he continued with his action, but the dealer only counted the 2,850,000 chips that actually crossed the betting line.
Raphael Davidou, in the small blind, went into the tank and eventually made the call, only to lose to Madene’s trips with K♣7♦.
“You just won three million,” Davidou said. “If you had bet your whole stack, I would have folded.”
