It's Not Serious

Clint Schafer opened for 55,000 from middle position and Jeremy Joseph and David Saab both called. From the small blind Mauro Lupo min-raised to 110,000 and Schafer chose to fold. Joseph then moved all in for 700,000, and after Saab folded Lupo made the call.

He found that his {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

was pipped by Joseph's {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

. The dealer (whose name is Sara, this is important) burned a card and turned over a flop of... {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

.

"I love you, Sara!!" Lupo shouted as his top set now had the lead. But Joseph still had an open-ended straight draw...until the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

on the turn gave Lupo a full house. The {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

on the turn didn't save Joseph and he's now down to 1.74 million, while Lupo doubled to 2.22 million.
