Big Pot For Phiniotis

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante

The feature table changed during the break. Shortly after arriving under the eyes of the cameras, Paolo opened to 8,500 from early position. Afrah Afrah called in the cutoff, and Chrysi Phiniotis called in the big blind.

On a 3?2?A? flop, Paolo made a continuation bet of 8,500. Afrah folded, but Phiniotis raised to 17,500. Paolo didn't want to let his opponent win the pot easily, so he three-bet to 50,000. Phiniotis quickly called.

Phiniotis checked the turn 6?, allowing Paolo to bet 37,500 chips. After some time, Phiniotis called once more. The river brought the 4?, and Phiniotis checked again.

Paolo added 57,000 more chips to the pot. Struggling to make a decision, Phiniotis eventually called with A?2? for two pairs. Paolo showed 10?10? and saw the pot go to Phiniotis' hands.
