Patrone's Overbet Gets Called
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Ramiro Petrone checked from the big blind on a flop of7♦6♣3♥. With around 5,000 chips in the pot, Jeffrey Esterling then made a bet of 2,500 from the cutoff. Petrone called before both of the players checked the Q♣ turn.
The 8♥ river was then dealt and Petrone now made a massive overbet of 18,000 chips. Esterling weighed his options, cut out some calling chips, and put them in.
Petrone could only show A♥10♥ for ace-high, while Esterling made the winning call with his overpair of KxKx.
