Sidoni Breaks 300k

This hand was kicked off when a player in middle position raised the stakes to 10,000 preflop. Stephen Foutty re-raised to 27,000 on the button, and John Sidoni responded by shoving his stack of about 145,000 all in. The original raiser folded and Foutty was left thinking about what to do. Sidoni tried to help Foutty make a decision by saying "Probably think I have nothing huh?" Regardless of his reasons for doing so, Foutty did indeed make the call.

Sidoni: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Foutty: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Sidoni was well ahead and stayed that way through a board of {2-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}.

When all was said and done, Sidoni had 315,000 chips and one last piece of advice for Foutty, who was left with 105,000. "Just follow your instinct and fold the damn hand," he said.
