Demlakian is Still Agressive
When we last saw Ken Demlakian, it was at APPT Seoul. There he was aggressive, driving the action from the start. If the following hand is any indication, it looks like he is adopting the same strategy but may need to rethink it a bit.
Demlakian opened for 325 from middle position and was called by a late position player and the player in the big blind. The flop came and the action was checked around.
The big blind checked the turn and Demlakian bet 650. The player in late position called and the big blind folded.
Demlakian fired again for 2,200 on the turn. The player in late position took some time, even staring Demlakian down for a time. He eventually made the call and waited for Demlakian to turn over his hand. Demlakian said, "I missed" and showed and the player in late position turned over .
The table was in awe of the call. If this is any indication this is going to be a tough field.
