Sitbon Sent to the Rail
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Julien Sitbon limped from the hijack and Akseli Paalanen raised to 90,000 from the cutoff. Sitbon made the call.
On the 7♥J♥Q♣ flop, SItbon bet out for 265,000, which left him just 5,000 behind. Paalanen raised to put SItbon all in, who went into the tank waiting for a pay jump. The table were debating when to call the clock when SItbon made it easy for them and tossed in the call.
Julien Sitbon: J♠9♣8♣7♠
Akseli Paalanen: A♥K♥Q♥9♠
Sitbon was ahead but had to dodge a lot of outs, the A♣ turn being one of them, which sent Paalanen into the lead. When the 10♥ peeled off on the river this grew even bigger at the finishing line, to send Sitbon to the rail.
