Karlic Keeps Up Aggressive Style
Level 31
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
First to act, Claudio Di Giacomo pushed all in for 3,400,000 with the A♦2♥ and won the blinds as well as big blind ante to claim an urgently needed boost for his severe short stack.
Daniel Pidun then opened to 625,000 with the K♠Q♦ in the hijack, and Gerald Karlic three-bet to 2,100,000 in the small blind holding the J♠10♥. Once it was back on Pidun, he quickly called to see the 7♥5♣4♦ flop. Karlic slowed down and checked. Pidun checked it back. The 9♠ followed on the turn, and Karlic bet 2,400,000 with his two overcards and gutshot straight draw. Pidun folded.
