Hand #84: A walk for Philip Scaletta.
Hand #85: Scaletta raised to 2,000,000 in the small blind and Tom Koral called in the big blind. The flop was 
and Scaletta checked. Koral bet 1,600,000, but Scaletta had cooked something up and breached some old-school poker etiquette by check-raising to 4,600,000.
Back on Koral, he considered the action for a bit before giving it up.
