Hamrick Builds His Stack
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Sean Hamrick made Jerome Neppl pay to see a flop by raising his option to 700,000 after his opponent completed the blinds.
Neppl obliged, leading them to a 10♣9♣7♣ flop. Hamrick was unfazed by the monochromatic board and fired 600,000. Equally calm, Neppl picked out some of his chips and raised to 1,600,000.
Hamrick, not to be outdone, put maximum pressure with an all-in shove for 5,500,000, which was enough to make Neppl fold his hand.
