Eychenne Elects to Be A Hero
Niveau 7
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Dario Sammartino raised to 1,300 from under the gun and Thomas Eychenne three-bet to 4,400 from the hijack. Sammartino called and the duo saw a 10♣3♦2♥ emerge from the deck. Eychenne put out a continuation-bet of 3,400 and Sammartino check-called.
The 10♥ turn then checked around before Sammartino took the betting lead on the 7♦ river. He led out for 7,500 and this sent Eychenne into the tank.
After using one time bank extension, Eychenne made the call. Sammartino reluctantly showed his Q♥J♦ and Eychenne proudly showed his A♦K♠ for the ace-high hero call.
The call elevated Eychenne's stack to more than double the starting 50,000.
