Georato Applies Preflop Pressure
May 09, '14
John Dolan raised to 1,000 from middle position and the player in the hijack called. Rob Georato three-bet to 3,200 from the cutoff and action folded back around to Dolan. Dolan took a few moments before four-betting to 7,200. The hijack folded and Georato doesn’t take long before five-betting to 15,000.
Dolan lets out a sigh, double checks his cards and tosses them into the muck. Georato chips up to 55,000 and is steadily climbing the chip counts.

The small blind checked and Georato bet 2,000. The small blind check-called and the river was the 4. The small blind checked again and Georato bet 8,000. The small blind quickly called and Georato showed 65, good for a straight and he scooped the pot. He looks to be one of the early chip leaders with just over 35,000 in chips.
