Theologis Faces a River-Raise
Level 7
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The action folded to Marius Gierse in the small blind who just limped in. Alexandros Theologis raised to 21,000 in the big blind and Gierse called to see a flop of 10♦4♦3♦.
Gierse check-called a bet of 12,000 from Theologis and the J♣ landed on the turn. Both players checked and the K♣ hit the river. Gierse checked for the third time and Theologis sized up a bet of 55,000. Gierse check-raised to 190,000 which put Theologis in the tank. After using two of his time banks, Theologis finally dumped his cards into the muck.
