Caputo Catapults Up the Leaderboard
Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Rajendara Dhar raised to 325,000 from early position. Paul Mattioda called from the cutoff before Brandon Caputo three-bet to 1,425,000 out of the small blind. Itai Levy called from the big blind, which brought in Dhar as well. Mattioda folded and they headed to the flop.
Caputo moved all in for 4,295,000 on the 10?7?2? flop and only Dhar made the call.
Brandon Caputo: A?A?10?7?
Rajendara Dhar: J?9?8?7?
The 8? came on the turn to give Dhar the nut straight, but the board-pairing 7? river improved Caputo to a full house, sevens full of tens and kept him alive in the tournament.
