Marafioti Chops It

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Matthew Marafioti has, without us noticing, chipped up to about 50,000. He started the day in the Amazon Room but is rocking a big stack here in Brasilia now. Marafioti just chopped a not too exciting pot, but it's still worth mentioning. On a {J-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop he bet out 650 from the small blind. His opponent on the button made the call and both players checked the {10-Hearts} on the turn. The river brought another pair on the board with the {K-Clubs}, and Marafioti bet 900. The button made the call and bother players turned out to be playing the same hand: {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for Marafioti, {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for his neighbor.
