Andion In Massive Pot On The River

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Alejandro Andion
Alejandro Andion

Alejandro Andion was heads-up against the cutoff on a {7-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, the pot already at 70,000.

According to another player at the table, who helpfully filled PokerNews in on the action, apparently after a pre-flop limp from early position, Andion's opponent had bet and Andion three-bet the button. After getting called he continued, was called, then continued again on the turn when checked to. The opponent called again.

This time, on the river his opponent lead into him for 31,000 chips only to have Andion move all in for 99,500 total. The opponent had Andion covered by a few thousand, and after thinking for a couple of minutes if not more, the opponent perhaps begrudgingly let his hand go.
