Messina Over 30 Million

Level 31 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

Michael Sklenicka raised to 450,000 on the button, and Alexandre Reard called out of the big blind.

On the {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop, Reard checked, and Sklenicka continued for 300,000. Reard called. The {K-Clubs} turn brought no betting action, and Reard checked again on the {10-Diamonds} river. Sklenicka bet 1,100,000, and Reard reluctantly folded.

In the next hand, Valentin Messina made it 525,000 to go, and Scott Stewart three-bet to 1,400,000. Out of the big blind, Jonas Mackoff asked for Stewart's stack size and seemed interested, but he ultimately folded. Messina asked the very same question: "How much are you playing?"

"Total with this, nine million," Stewart replied. After brief consideration, Messina four-bet to 3,150,000, and Stewart let go after giving it some thought.
