Sitbon Sizes Up on the Turn
Level 30
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Julien Sitbon opened 200,000 in the cutoff and both Maria Konnikova on the button, and Paul Lagan in the big blind made the call.
When the A?K?5? flop hit the felt, Lagan checked and Sitbon continued for 150,000. Konnikova quickly got out of the way, but Lagan matched the bet.
The 4? fell on the turn, and Lagan checked again before Sitbon pushed 725,000 across the line. Lagan gave it plenty of thought before deciding to muck his hand.
