Epparla Falls Further; Scott on the Rise
Level 24
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
From the hijack seat, Ramana Epparla raised to 46,000. Robert Scott three-bet to 96,000 from the button, and Epparla made the call to see a flop.
It came , and Epparla check-called a bet of 50,000. That led them to the turn, and Epparla knocked the table again. Scott put out 80,000 this time, only to see Epparla check-raise to 220,000 total. Scott responded with a reraise all in, and Epparla got the message and forfeited his cards back to the dealer.
Scott is up to about 930,000 with that pot, dropping the chip leader down to 1.24 million. He's still the big stack, but his count is going in the wrong direction as he struggles to win a pot today.
