Rowe Hits on the River

[user75032]

Martin Rowe

Antonio Fazzolari may wish he had played his hand more aggressively. He raised to 80,000 from under the gun in front of a reraise by Martin Rowe to 200,000. Fazzolari was the only caller.

When the flop came {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

, Fazzolari led into Rowe for 100,000, a quarter of the pot. Rowe called. On the turn {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

, Fazzolari bet 100,000 again. Getting 7-to-1 on his money, Rowe called a second time. The river was the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

. Both players checked it down. Fazzolari showed {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{7-Clubs}

for two pair, eights and sevens, but it was no good. Rowe's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Diamonds}

paired up on the river to win the pot.
