Spinella In Need of a Spin-Up
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Down to a mere 11,000, Anthony Spinella pushed all in from the button. Jose Mariema called all in for fewer than that and was trailing with the A♥7♠, as Spinella held the far superior A♠K♥.
However, the kicker played a crucial role on the 10♥9♠8♥8♦6♠ runout as Mariema rivered a straight to put Spinella even further into the danger zone.
