Aggression Prevails
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
When action folded to Dario Sammartino in the small blind, he opted to limp in. [Removed:548] then bumped it up to 42,000 from the big blind, and Sammartino called.
The two saw a flop of A♦2♣8♠ laid out, and Sammartino check-called a bet of 24,000.
When Sammartino checked for a second time on the 9♠ turn, [Removed:549] amped up the pressure, placing a more significant bet of 165,000.
Sammartino looked suspicious, eyeing [Removed:549] up and down. After a few minutes weighing up the situation, though, he opted to return his cards to the dealer.
