Ali Balci limped the button with 9?9?5?4? and Dorel Eldabach checked the J?9?7?7?. They checked the 6?6?6? flop and Eldabach bet the 7? turn for 300,000, Balci called.
Balci also called another 1,300,000 on the K? river and seemed visibly tilted as he dropped back to a mere ten big blinds.
"I didn't even see the seven," he then told a friend on the rail in German.
