Hands #223-225: Three Barrels by Ensan
Hand #223: Hossein Ensan limped the small blind and Dario Sammartino checked from the big blind. On the 
flop, Sammartino checked and called a bet of 4,000,000 by Ensan. The 
on the turn was checked through and on the 
river, both elected to check once more. Sammartino tabled the 
for a pair of jacks and that won the pot.
Hand #224: Sammartino raised to 7,000,000 and Ensan came along. The flop came 
and both players checked. After the 
turn, Ensan checked again and Sammartino claimed the pot with a bet of 12,000,000.
Hand #225: A raise to 6,500,000 by Ensan was called by Sammartino, who checked the 
flop. Ensan bet 4,000,000 and a call by Sammartino followed. On the 
turn, Sammartino checked again and Ensan now made it 12,500,000 to go. Both rails fell silent as Sammartino tossed in calling chips.
The 
river completed the board and Sammartino checked the third street in a row. Ensan bet 38,000,000 into a pot of 49,000,000 and Sammartino reluctantly folded to vault Ensan back into a 10 big blind lead.
