Christian Zetzsche

Level 43 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Hand #195: Jonathan Tamayo raised to 10,000,000 with the A?10? and Jordan Griff called in the big blind with the 7?6? to see the 8?7?5? flop. They checked to the 6? on which Griff bet 12,000,000 and forced a fold from Tamayo.

Hand #196: Griff with the J?7? raised to 12,000,000 on the button for Tamayo to defend the 5?4? and the flop brought A?4?2?. Tamayo check-called for 10,000,000 and checked again the 10? on the turn. Griff sized up to 40,000,000 and Tamayo stuck around to the 10? river.

Another Tamayo check led to the third barrel by Griff as he doubled his previous bet, making it 80,000,000 to go. Tamayo folded and Griff jumped back into a two-to-one lead.

Hand #197: Tamayo raised to 10,000,000 with J?3? and Griff quickly glanced at his stack, then three-bet big to 40,000,000. When Tamayo had folded, Griff raised his hand in celebration to the rail and then tossed his cards towards the muck. While doing so, he accidentally exposed the 7?5? in the process and smirked after.

Hand #198: Griff opened to 10,000,000 with 8?5? and Tamayo called holding the 7?6?. They checked the J?8?6? flop and Tamayo check-called 8,000,000 on the Q? turn. The board paired with the J? river and Tamayo checked again.
