Konishi Among Big Stacks After Eliminating Dandrea
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Raymond Dandrea had gone all in at a prior point in the hand, creating a main pot of 65,000, and a side pot was brewing between Reo Konishi in the hijack and Timur Margolin on the button.
The board read 3♠7♥4♥5♦ when Konishi bet 30,000. Margolin called to the K♥ river, where Konishi checked. After a while, Margolin decided to check back.
Konishi's Q♦Q♣ bested the J♠J♥ of Margolin and the 9♥9♣ of Dandrea, shipping the sizable pot and sending Dandrea to the rail.
