Ciolte Doubles Without Seeing a Flop
Level 31
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Besnik Aruqi opened the button to 700,000, and then folded when Calin Ciolte jammed out of the big blind for 2,475,000.
The next hand, Aruqi tried again with a raise to 600,000 from the cutoff. Ciolte stuck it all in again, this time for 3,525,000 out of the small blind, which forced Aruqi to fold for a second time.
Then, Gal Naim took his shot at stealing the blinds as he opened the cutoff to 600,000. Ciolte, for the third time on the trot, jammed for 4,725,000 from the button. Naim flashed an ace as he tossed his cards into the muck.
Ciolte more than doubled his stack from three hands, without having to see any community cards.
