Fischman Takes on the Chip Leader
Undaunted by the possibility of being put to the test for his whole stack (while his opponent Pierre Canali risks less than half of his), Scott Fischman just took hold of the post-flop aggression leash and didn't let go. The flop was out: and Fischman check-raised to 2,000 (Canali bet 625). Back to Canali who raised: 5,200 total now. The ball was back in Fischman's court and he upped it yet again to 11,000. This protracted game of chicken looked like it could turn deadly at this point, but Canali passed after a brief think and Fischman wins a tidy pot right there.
