Jose Costa opened to 18,000 on the Button, and Vladimir Melnic defended his Big Blind.
First to act, Melnic checked the royal flush-friendly J♣K♣9♣ flop. Costa bet 21,000, and after taking a close look at his opponent’s stack, Melnic forced his opponent all in for 137,000 in total. Costa spent a minute or two contemplating his decision, before folding. As the dealer pushed the chips Melnic’s way, Melnic revealed his 10♦8♣ holdings. What a play!
Vladimir Melnic: 520,000
Jose Costa: 116,000
