Zelman Takes a Bite Out of the Hippo
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A completed board of 4♣2♠2♥5♣5♥ was spread across the table with around 45,000 in the pot already. The action was on Martin Kabrhel in the cutoff who dropped in a rainbow bet, one of each color, making it 31,600.
Michael Zelman thought for a minute before splashing in a raise to 85,000. Kabrhel tried to engage in some table talk, even pointing out the large dog looming in the background of Zelman, but got no response at all. Kabrhel eventually called and Zelman turned over 5♦4♦ for a full house and Kabrhel sent his cards to the muck.
