Zobian Applies Pressure
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jimmy D'Ambrosio raised to 20,000 from middle position, Aram Zobian then three-bet to 42,000. D'Ambrosio told the table that he doesn't usually tank but he has a real tough decision on his hands. After a considerable amount of time passed D'Ambrosio made the call. Before the flop Zobian asked how many chips D'Ambrosio had, he replied that he wasn't sure "but you better have a hand if you plan on betting."
The dealer fanned a flop of 7?8?6?. D'Ambrosio checked, and Zobian bet 20,000. After some deliberation, D'Ambrosio folded A?K? face up, to which tablemate Phil Hellmuth told D'Ambrosio he should have shoved preflop against Zobian.
