State Fights His Way Back
Level 35
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Adrian State, for a long time the small stack among the last three remaining players, remained resilient. He opened the button with a raise to 600,000, and Nicola Grieco called from the small blind.
True to form, Grieco checked in the dark before the flop of 8?J?4? was revealed. State bet 900,000, and Grieco snap-called.
Grieco once again checked the K? turn in the dark, but this time State checked behind.
On the J? river, Grieco quickly bet 2,000,000, and State responded by going all in. Grieco didn't call, and State was back on track.
