Mike Dentale, Day 2 Level 18

Mike Dentale started with 50k and the button on Day 2 and is making a good effort to establish himself in the event.

Dentale opened the pot from early position and was 3-bet all-in by Kevin Grabel in the big blind. Dentale called for 122k and would be off to the races.

Dentale A♠Q♠ vs Grabel 10♣10♦ Pot: ~250k

Board: Q♣9♣9♦7♦4♥

Dentale wins the flip and moves up to ~250k, 5x the starting stack and just over 30 big blinds.

Grabel, who came into Day 2 as the chip-leader has been chipping during Level 18 before the hit from Dentale. He is left with ~730k and is still towards the top of the field.
