Labat Puts Mathis in Tough Spot
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Marty Mathis raised to 80,000 in the cutoff and Antoine Labat defended in the big blind.
The flop came K♠6♠8♣ and Labat check-raised to 135,000 over Mathis' continuation-bet of 55,000. Mathis called and the 3♣ rolled off on the turn.
Labat fired out a bet of 350,000, which represented most of Mathis' remaining stack. After taking some time to think through his decision, Mathis sent his cards into the muck.
