Big Pot Without Showdown For Bifarella
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
After an open in early position to 40,000 called by the hijack and by Raj Vohra in the cutoff, Samuel Bifarella in the big blind made a squeeze to 205,000. Neither the initial raiser nor Vohra seemed to worry after this bet, as they both called.
On the 2♥J♦8♥ flop, Bifarella bet 275,000. The player in early position quickly folded, but Vohra seemed interested. For a minute, he counted his stack and was on the edge of calling a few times. However, he eventually folded.
"I have a pocket pair," he said to justify his thought process. But he let the pot go to Bifarella, who approaches the end of the day with 1,400,000 chips.
