Amsellem Takes From Plante

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Action preflop picked up when Maurice Amsellem three-bet Santiago Plante's preflop raise to a meaty 6,500. Plante responded with a four-bet to 16,000, which Amsellem just called.

Plante then led out on the {6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop for 10,000 and got raised to 22,000 by Amsellem.

Plante gave up his hand at that point, and Amsellem gave him a courtesy showing of {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}.
