Hammoud Wants Millions
Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Rami Hammoud made mention that he was more inclined to defend his big blind because Paul Serrate used one of the new, orange, oversized chips in his raise to 1,600,000.
So the two went heads up to a flop of 6?2?2?. Hammoud check-called the cheeky 1,000,000 bet from Serrate.
The turn peeled the 5? and Hammoud took the initiative, betting 2,500,000 and getting a call from Serrate.
The river completed with the 8? and Hammoud continued with a bet of 3,000,000. Serrate went into the tank but eventually called and Hammoud tabled K?8? for rivered top pair.
Serrate, who has been very good natured all tournament, let Hammoud know he knew he was bluffing and that he was the wrong guy to bluff.
