Massive Blind on Blind Battle

Level 42 : 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Samuel Laskowitz
Samuel Laskowitz

Action was picked up in a pot of roughly 30,000,000 on the turn of a board showing {10-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Spades}{q-Hearts}. Jordan Pelon in the small blind checked to Sam Laskowitz in the big blind who bet 16,500,000 which was called.

The river came the {4-Diamonds} and Pelon checked again. This time Laskowitz put the maximum pressure on by moving all in for 130,000,000, covering Pelon's stack. Pelon went deep in the tank, thinking for several minutes. Eventually Pelon released his hand and the massive pot was shipped to Laskowitz, increasing his lead even more.

Scott Doubles Through Loiacono as Pelon Folds the Winner

Level 41 : 1,250,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante

Jeff Loiacono raised all in for 29,000,000 from under the gun. James Scott called for his last 12,000,000 in middle position before action folded to Jordan Pelon on the button.

Pelon gave the decision some thought before folding, leaving Loiacono and Scott going heads-up to the flop.

James Scott: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Jeff Loiacono: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and Loiacono improved no further than the pair of sevens on the flop. Pelon admitted after the hand he folded pocket nines and would've busted both players.
