Klein Gets Aggressive

Level 16 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Bill Klein opened to 180,000 from early position and was called by Justin Bonomo in the cutoff as well as Anton Morgenstern on the button.

Action checked to Morgenstern on a flop of 6410 and he bet out for 250,000. Neither of his opponents was going anywhere as they both called to keep action three-handed heading to the turn.

The turn came 9, prompting Klein and Bonomo to check once again. Morgenstern did not slow down, instead making it 600,000 to go. Klein responded by moving all in for around 2,800,000, getting a quick fold from Bonomo and sending Morgenstern deep into the tank.

After burning through one time extension, Morgenstern laid down his hand to take a hit to his stack and send some chips back towards Klein after the latter's failed bluff attempt against Bonomo.
