Sammartino Sends Out Papastavrou

Level 5 : Blinds 400/800, 1,200 ante
Jason Papastavrou
Jason Papastavrou

Dario Sammartino made it 2,500 to go in the cutoff. Big blind Jason Papastavrou then three-bet to 10,000, to which Sammartino responded with a four-bet shove worth 51,400.

Papastavrou played a little less than that and called off his chips to put himself all in. He then remained pat, forcing Sammartino to take one card in the draw.

Papastavrou tabled 10x6x4x3x2x, but Sammartino made 9x8x6x3x2x to best his opponent and send him to the rail.
