Gkatzas Calls Calamusa’s River Bluff for a Massive Double-Up
Niveau 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Pierre Calamusa opened to 40,000 from under the gun and was called by Fabian Bartuschk on the button and Dimitrios Gkatzas in the big blind.
The flop came 9♥2♠7♦, and Calamusa made a continuation bet of 40,000, which was only called by Gkatzas. The two players went heads-up to the 5♦ turn.
Gkatzas checked again, and Calamusa fired 135,000, which Gkatzas called.
The 8♥ completed the board, and Gkatzas took the initiative by leading out for 75,000. Calamusa checked his opponent stack and then moved all in for his effective stack of 510,000. Gkatzas went deep into the tank but he made the call and was visibly relieved when he saw Calamusa’s 10♦8♦. Gkatzas had made the correct call with his two pair, 7♣5♣, and took down the massive pot.
