Jain Stands Firm Against Heavy Pressure from Di Donato

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Giovanni Di Donato opened for 1,200 in the cutoff and got a caller in Ramana Epparla on the button. Chander Jain, in the small blind, decided to three-bet to 6,300. Di Donato went beyond and four-bet to 18,000 pushing Epparla out of the pot. Jain called.

The expensive flop came 2A6. Jain fired 8,000 and Di Donato made it 18,000 again. Jain flat called.

With pressure mounting on the A turn, Jain went all in for 135,000, sending Di Donato into the tank. Visibly frustrated, Di Donato surrendered his hand and the huge pot to Jain.
