Vieira Applies Pressure
Level 21
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Lander Lijo limped from the small blind and Joao Vieira raised to 700,000 out of the big blind. Lijo made the call to see a flop.
Lijo checked on a flop of 
and then called after Vieira continued for 400,000.
Both players checked through the 
turn to the 
river where Lijo checked for a third time. Vieira, unwilling to go to a cheap showdown, fired off 2,400,000, prompting Lijo to go into the tank. Eventually, he decided on a fold to send a sizable pot Vieira's direction.
