Small Pots Grow Big Fast
Level 15
: 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
What started out as a small pot (Mike McDonald limped in from the small blind, Mikita Badziakouski checked his big blind), soon got really big.
The flop came 
and McDonald bet out 40,000. Badziakouski raised to 100,000 and McDonald called. McDonald check called another 125,000 on the 
turn after a short (but intense) stare down.
The river came the 
and McDonald checked again, still keeping his focus on his neighbor. Badziakouski bet out 250,000 with just 227,000 behind. McDonald tanked for a bit and then moved all in. Badziakouski sighed and folded.
