Saccucci's Kings Scoop Sizeable Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Jordan Saccucci raised from the cutoff to 4,500. The small blind joined with a call, before Paul Tirnovean reraised to 21,000 in the big blind. Saccucci then four-bet all in, with Tirnovean covering him by 5,000 chips. The small blind folded and Tirnovean made the call. He showed A♦K♣, but Saccucci was favourite to win a huge pot as he tabled K♥K♦.
Kings was still comfortably out in front on the J♥9♦3♦ flop.
No help was offered on the turn either, with the 6♥ hitting the felt, leaving Tirnovean with just three outs on the river.
He missed them all, as the river ran out the 8♣, leaving Tirnovean with just 5,000 left. Meanwhile, Saccucci climbed among the chip leaders, winning a huge pot.
