Every Little Bit Helps

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Players have mostly been raising and three betting without a flop or showdown. But in this hand, our short stack, Andrea Dato, was able to take a little more than just the blinds.

Dato raised his button to 80,000 and David Diaz called from the big blind. The board came {A-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs} as both players had checked through the turn. On the river, Diaz checked to Dato who bet 125,000 and Diaz made the call. Dato shipped the pot with the {K-Spades}{10-Hearts} to pick up about 230,000 on that hand and get his stack back to around the 1 Million chip mark.
