Velvelt Vaults Further Up the Rankings
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Marco Di Persio raised to 80,000 from the hijack and Urmo Velvelt defended his big blind. Velvelt checked to Di Persio on the K?K?3? flop. Di Persio bet 70,000, which Velvelt raised to 150,000.
Di Persio called and did so too when Velvelt tossed in 225,000 on the A? turn. The 8? river saw Velvelt use two time banks before jamming all in, barely covering Di Persio's stack of 855,000.
Di Persio needed four time extensions of his own but ultimately found a fold and was left with less than 25 big blinds.
