Rossitto Puts Pressure On Polop

Andrew Knowles

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

The action was opened to 5,500 from an early position player and both Michael Rossitto in the hijack and David Cabrera Polop in the big blind made the call.

The flop fanned out and play was checked over to Rossitto who took the lead with a bet of 12,000. Polop called and the initial raiser got out of the way.

On the turn Polop checked again and Rossitto sized up to 33,000. Polop weighed his options, but in the end made the fold and the pot was sent to Rossitto.
