Sammartino Picks Off a Bluff
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Dario Sammartino opened to 1,000 from the cutoff before calling a three-bet to 2,600 from an opponent in the small blind.
The small blind continued for 1,200 on the A?6?7? flop and Sammartino made the call.
There was no slowing down for the small blind following the 5? turn as he bet again, this time making it 3,700. As before, Sammartino called.
The small blind fired one more barrel after the 5? river completed the board, sizing up to 7,700. Sammartino thought long and hard but ended up making the call, prompting his opponent to muck their holding.
