Sammartino Bullies with a Big Stack
Level 11
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Leonard Maue raised to 6,500 from under the gun and picked up three callers along the way. The flop fell 
and all four players checked to the 
on the turn which created some action.
Dario Sammartino checked from the small blind and Emil Bise made a small bet of 5,500 in the big blind. Maue raised to 18,500 and Vladimir Peck flat-called on the button. Sammartino came in with a check-raise to 62,000 which was only called by Maue.
They went heads-up to the 
on the river and Sammartino announced all in as he dropped in a stack of 25,000 chips. Maue only had around 140,000 chips remaining and went into the tank for over three minutes. He eventually decided to lay his hand down and Sammartino added to his stack.
