Palumbo Muscles a Pot

Rocco Palumbo opened to 60,000 first to act and Thomas Conway three-bet to 145,000 directly behind him. Behind Conway, Niel Robinson four-bet to 340,000 from the small blind. It was folded back to Palumbo, who announced he was all in. Conway quickly folded, as did Mittelman.

Palumbo revealed a {7-} and mucked his hand. He is our commanding chip leader with 4.4 million.
