Magriel Making a Showing
![[user198174]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
A player in early position raised it up to 1,400 and action folded to Paul Magriel who three-bet to 4,400. The rest of the table folded and it was back to the initial raiser who four-bet to 9,200. Magriel allowed for a couple of minutes to drain off the clock while he decided what to do. In the end though Magriel announced "all in", a bet that would put his opponent all in for his remaining 7,000. The early position player made the call and was at risk.
Magriel: 
Opponent: 
The flop came 
sling-shotting Magriel into the lead as he grabbed hold of an eight. The 
on the turn secured the victory, and Magriel's opponent was drawing dead. A meaningless 
fell on the river and Magriel just moved up to one of the top stacks in the room.
Magriel has yet to cash at this year's World Series of Poker, but if he keeps running like he is cashing in this event should be a breeze.
