700,000 For Allen
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Already the chipleader of one of the $2,200 Warmup's Day 1, Michael Allen once again found himself with a big stack in front of him. Not only did he win big pots, but he takes the smaller ones.
Just moments after eliminating a short stack, he defended his big blind against a player in a middle position. With a 6♦2♠9♥ flop on the table, he called a continuation bet of 5,000. Then, both players checked the turn 5♥ and the river A♣.
Maybe Allen should have bet on the river, since he had a pair with A♥8♠ on the river. Following this hand, Allen's chip stack grew to 700,000 chips.
