Malecha's Move Gone Wrong
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
In the last hand before the break, in fact it lasted five minutes into it, a huge pot played out between Mark Malecha and Michael Seymour. Seymour had raised to 12,000 and Malecha three-bet pretty big to 48,000 in the small blind. Seymour just flat-called and they headed to the flop 
.
Malecha checked, Seymour bet 48,000 and then faced a check-raise to 150,000. Seymour moved all in for slightly more and Malecha had the dealer count it before paying off the additional 38,000 chips with 
. Seymour flipped over 
and faded the runner runner miracle with the 
turn and 
river as final two community cards.
