Four Men and a Four-Bet
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The pot was opened to 11,000 and Ryan D'Angelo made it 25,000 to play, with Abraham Korotki flatting and the action folding to Roland Israelashvili.
The seasoned veteran decided on a four-bet to 72,000, leaving himself right around 200,000 behind. The opener took a last peek at his cards before folding, and with the action now on him D'Angelo announced himself all in. The big bet forced a quick fold from Korotki, with Israelashvili tanking long and hard after being put to a decision for his tournament life.
Eventually though, Israelashvili decided to fold and fight another day, sending one fourth of his stack across the table to D'Angelo, but preserving nearly an average stack with which to mount a comeback.
