Tajiou Gets a Full Double Against a Sticky Calderon
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Albert Calderon made it 200,000 to go with 6♥6♣ from under the gun and Mounir Tajiou defended his big blind holding K♦7♦.
They saw a flop of 5♥7♠3♠ where Tajiou check-called a bet of 250,000 from Calderon to see the K♣ on the turn. Tajiou checked again with his two pair and Calderon didn't slow down as he bet 450,000. Tajiou then put in the check-raise to 1,100,000, and Calderon called with his pair and gutshot.
An A♣ hit the river and Tajiou shoved 260,000 into the pot, and Calderon called it off in the hope his opponent was bluffing.
Tajiou approaching 4,000,000 after that double-up.
