Michalak Knocks Bianchi Down a Peg
Level 23
: 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Paul BIanchi opened to 55,000 from the button, and John Michalak defended his big blind.
Michalak checked the 
flop over to Bianchi, who continued for 75,000. Michalak called.
The 
turn paired the board, and Michalak check-called 165,000.
After the 
fell on the river, Bianchi fired 340,000 when checked to, and Michalak quickly called. Bianchi showed 
for a rivered two pair, but Michalak's 
turned trips for the win.
