Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Four players went to a flop of K♠7♠2♦ where Stanislav Petriv bet 27,000 from early position. Gianfranco Iaculli called in the hijack, while Julien Mariani and Jeremie Zouari folded in the blinds.

Petriv bet another 44,000 on the 7♣ turn and Iaculli again called. The river was the 9♦ and Petriv slid forward 180,000. Iaculli instantly tossed his cards into the muck.

[Removed:533] is also at this table and has built his stack up to around 1,600,000.
