Golderg Piles on the Pressure
Level 36
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Rene Majed raised from middle position to 1,600,000, and only Fred Goldberg called, defending his big blind.
Both players checked the 7♠7♦9♠ flop, prompting Goldberg to take over the betting lead on the 4♠ turn, putting out a bet of 1,200,000. Majed made the call, and the players moved to a river card.
The dealer flipped over the 10♠ river card, bringing four to a flush, and Goldberg opted to go for maximum pressure. Majed only had 6,300,000 in his stack, and Goldberg asked for it all, putting out a bet of 7,000,000.
Majed considered his options but ultimately chose to return his cards to the dealer.
