Drilon’s Dwindling Stack


After the turn 3 6 6 J with a raised pot, Jose Drilon fired 1,000 and saw the guy next to him make the call. The river 7 arrived and Drilon decided to just check this time.

Bad news as his opponent perceived the check as a weakness and bet a bigger 2,575… Enough to send Drilon to the tank and eventually, to fold.

The very next hand, he was again up against the same opponent. With a board of A 5 9 A 9, Drilon’s nemesis made a 1,900 river bet… Again, enough to force another fold from Drilon. The Filipino has 13,000 in chips left.
