Phillip Girolamo Shoves
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Phillip Girolamo was in early position and raised to 750.
Action folded around to the big blind and he decided to call.
The flop came 
. The big blind checked, and Girolamo wasted no time announcing, "All in." His opponent quickly sent his cards flying into the muck.
Clearly Girolamo has a successful game plan as he has already more than doubled his starting stack!
