Micallef Shows Strength

Niveau 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded around to Jie Zhan on the button and he raised to 2,200. Both Steven Wilkie in the small blind and Danielle Micallef in the big blind made the call. After both blinds checked the flop, Zhan continued for 3,200.

That got a fold from Wilkie, but Micallef quickly three-bet to 10,000, which was a good portion of Zhan's remaining stack. After mulling it over for about a minute, Zhan released his hand and the port was shipped to Micallef.
