Galfond Gets Away From One

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante
Phil Galfond Staring His Opponent Down
Phil Galfond Staring His Opponent Down

We saw Phil Galfond staring with focus across the table at a hoodie-clad Craig McCorkell, who already has three cashes at this year's WSOP (Events # 4, 17, & 28) too add to the gold bracelet he won last summer.

The board read {4-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and Galfond had checked to McCorkell, who fired away with a bet of 1,200. Galfond studied his opponent for a bit before throwing out the calling chips, and he checked before the {4-Diamonds} hit the board. McCorkell continued his line and bet 2,700, and this time Galfond released his hand without hesitation.
