Bubble Double for Tantillo

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Fausto Tantillo
Fausto Tantillo

Fausto Tantillo opened to 50,000 from the button and Denis Vlasov defended from the big blind.

The flop came 8?6?Q? and Vlasov check-called a 75,000 continuation bet from Tantillo.

The 4? turn brought a possible flush in and Vlasov lead out with a bet of 60,000. Tantillo made the call.

On the 6? river Vlasov moved all in, covering Tantillo who had 170,000 behind. Tantillo, who started the day as chip leader but had recently become one of the shorter stacks, went into the tank.

After a couple minutes Tantillo flicked in the call and was at risk.

Vlasov could only show K?J? for a bluff while Tantillo turned over A?Q? for top pair to secure a critical double up at Vlasov's expense.
