Family Pot
Level 33
: 150,000/300,000, 150,000 ante

It happened when Michael Rocco limped the button and Ben Farrell did the same from the small blind. Michael Dyer checked his option from the big and the flop came down

Two checks saw Rocco bet 450,000 and that did the trick as both Farrell and Dwyer ditched their hands.
