Rocco Puts the Pressure on Bendinelli
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Giuliano Bendinelli checked from the small blind on a board of 7♣J♣7♠6♥. Michael Rocco was the only other player involved in the pot and put out a 225,000 chip bet in the pot of 335,000. Bendinelli made the call before the 8♥ river rolled off.
Another check followed from Bendinelli and Rocco swiftly moved all in, covering Bendinelli's stack of 700,000 chips. Bendinelli spent a while in the tank until the clock was eventually called. His countdown ended before he took any action, and thus his hand was declared dead, shipping the big pot Rocco's way.
