Alan Gold isn't afraid to use his big stack to his advantage. In a recent hand, he opened for 160,000 from under the gun only to have Daragh Davey three-bet to 360,000 from the button. The blinds folded and Gold took stock of his opponent's stack before announcing that he was all in. Davey folded.
In the next hand, Paul Febers opened for 235,000 from the small blind and Gold pushed back to around 460,000. Febers announced that he was making it 850,000, which prompted a little smile from Gold, who ended up folding.
