Minieri Sucks Out To Double Up

Level 4 : 150/300, 0 ante

I must be Dario Minieri's good luck charm as I haven't seen him all day and when I do finally locate the diminutive Italian, he doubles up!

Minieri raised to 500 from early position and only the button called. The flop came down {5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{k-Hearts} and was met with a bet of 1,000 from Minieri, a raise to 2,600 from his opponent and shove for 9,400 from Minieri. His shove was snap-called by the button, who happily revealed {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for a set of fives, way in front of the {a-Clubs}{a-Spades} of Minieri.

However, poker can be a cruel game and unless you have the hand locked down 100% then anything can and does happen. The dealer burned a card and dealt the turn.... BOOM! {a-Diamonds} giving Minieri the lead and when the river came the {6-Diamonds}, the tiny Team PokerStars pro had doubled up to 21,300!
