Two Massive Pots Extend Into Break

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Just as players were heading off on break, two pots continued on adjacent tables that extended well into the 15 minutes.

Daniel Montagnolli bet 175,000 on a flop of {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and Kubanychbek Abakirov called in the small blind. Both players checked the {5-Spades} turn.

The river came the {2-Hearts} and Abakirov checked over to Montagnolli, who slid forward a bet of 600,000. Abakirov tanked for several minutes before he called as Montagnolli turned over {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}. Abakirov mucked and quickly left the room.

At the same time, Michael Uguccioni and Elie Dib were involved in a pot with 500,000 in the middle on a board of {5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Uguccioni moved all in and Dib, with around 700,000 remaining, also tanked for several minutes.

"Why all in," he asked Uguccioni before eventually mucking. Montagnolli and Uguccioni are now both above 2,000,000.
