Cortellino Catches a Card

Aaron Overton made it 18,500 to go preflop, and Leonard Cortellino shoved in for 112,000 from the cutoff seat. Overton quickly called with {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} and the monster stack, and Cortellino's {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} was in bad shape to keep him afloat.

The {8-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {8-Spades} flop was a miss for the at-risk player, but it did bring some chop possibilites into play with the paired board. There would be no chop. The {J-Spades} peeled off the deck on the turn to pull Cortellino into a big lead with his three-outer. Overton was the one drawing now, and he couldn't find a card as the {5-Hearts} river secured Cortellino's double up.
