Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Edwin Dela Cruz limped with the 9?2? and Alessandro Taranto checked his option with the Q?7?.
The K?9?8? flop was checked by the Italian, who then check-raised to 380,000. Dela Cruz called but gave up the pot on the J? turn when Taranto bet. That reduced the lead of the local hero to a mere eight big blinds.
