Markin Sets a Trap
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Sergii Markin limped in from under the gun. Domenico Pediglieri, Giuseppe Cimelli and Cesare Florio also limped in. Daniel Garcia completed from the small blind before Keith Loftus made it 4,000 to go from the big blind.
Markin then reraised to 12,000, which folded out the other limpers. Loftus jammed as the bigger stack, and Markin called off the 15,700 more he had behind.
Sergii Markin: A?A?
Keith Loftus: 8?8?
Markin's trap had been sprung and he doubled up to leave Loftus short after the K?9?3?Q?4? runout.
