D'Amato Almost to 200k
Roberto D'Amato raised to 6,000 before the flop and received one call. The flop was filled with diamonds as it came down 
. D'Amato continued for 10,000 only to have his opponent raise to 20,000.
D'Amato would not back down so easily, however, as he made it 30,000 to go. His opponent then moved all in and put D'Amato to the test. Eventually he made the call and the hands were shown:
D'Amato: 
Opponent: 
D'Amato was out in the lead with his set of kings but his opponent could easily catch a diamond to take the lead. The 
turned and the 
rivered, giving D'Amato the best hand and a massive pot. He now sits at about 196,000.
