A Case of Bad Timing

[user46392]

Some mistimed early aggression from Casey Coleman failed to pay off for him.

John Strzemp minimum-raised to 20,000 in mid-position, and both Coleman in the small blind and Matthew Giannetti in the big blind called. They checked to Strzemp, who bet 40,000 on the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

flop. Coleman called, and Giannetti raised to 160,000. Strzemp gave up on it and folded. After some deliberation, Coleman called. Coleman and Giannetti both checked the {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

turn, and then Coleman bet out a massive 280,000 on the {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

river. After dwelling up for an age, Giannetti called with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

-- Coleman just mucked, and was down to around 500,000, while Gianetti leapt to 1.5 million.
