Baltateanu Holds For a Massive Double Off Knebel
Level 23
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 5♣7♦4♥, Silviu Baltateanu bet 220,000 from the cutoff and Paul Knebel raised to 600,000 in the small blind. Baltateanu called, and the 9♦ fell on the turn.
Knebel then moved all in and Baltateanu snap-called for 1,830,000. He showed 4♠4♣ for a set, while Knebel was on a flush draw with K♦Q♦. The river 7♠ was safe for Baltateanu, and he doubled up in a pot worth around 5,000,000.
"Change game now!" he yelled out.
