What a River Card for Marchese

Action folded to Tom Marchese in the cutoff seat and he raised all in for 233,000. On the button, Masa Kagawa made the call. Everyone else folded and the cards were on their backs.

Kagawa showed the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} for a crushing blow to Marchese's {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}. But then the board ran out {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Marchese spiked trips on the river to win the hand and double up.
