Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
After a limp from Glenn Sorrells under the gun, Robert Garcia, seated directly to his left, raised to 4,000 and was called by Hergi Muci in the next seat. Sorrells took a moment to consider but eventually folded.
On a flop of 6♣7♥A♦, Garcia continued with a bet of 6,000. Muci, stoic and focused, took a few seconds before gingerly sliding in the call.
Both players checked the 8♣ turn. On the A♠ river, Garcia bet 2,500, and sensing an opportunity, Muci moved all-in. Garcia made the call but had to muck after Muci tabled A♣10♥ for trips.
Garcia, visibly frustrated, shipped the chips over as Muci — now smiling — dragged in a sizable pot, significantly boosting his stack.
