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 2♠A♣6♣. 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.
