Macias Trending Downward
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Matt Livingston opened to 10,500 from the cutoff and saw Erik Macias three-bet him on the button to 36,000. Action folded back to Livingston and he thought for about 45 seconds before announcing he was all in. Macias then took about 45 seconds before folding, saying he should have just shoved all in over the top of Livingston's open instead of three-betting him.
On the following hand, Macias opened from the cutoff and saw Bobby Opila shove all in over the top of him from the button. He forcefully helicoptered his cards to the muck at a 45-degree angle from eye level as Opila raked in the pot.
