Darner and Radoja Trading Blows

For the most part at this final table, play has been pretty snug. We have only seen a handful of flops in two hours of play, and we had yet to see a four bet preflop. However, Mark Darner and Marh Radoja have taken it upon themselves to open up the action, as they tangled in back to back pots.

First, Darner raised to 55,000 in the cutoff, and Radoja three bet to 114,000 on the button. It got back to Darner, and he put out a four bet to 231,000. Radoja released his hand after a minute in the tank, and Darner collected the pot.

On the very next hand, the exact same betting occurred. However, this time Radoja put in the first five bet of the day to 525,000. Darner was in the tank for at least three minutes, constantly wiggling around in his seat. He moved back and forth in his seat, putting his head into his hands at various points. Eventually, he folded his hand, and Radoja won round two.
