Marchetti Binks the River
Level 6
: 300/500, 500 ante
Guenter Halak defended out of the blinds and check-shoved for the last 13,600 on a ![]()
![]()
flop. Initial raiser Luca Marchetti called after brief consideration and the following cards were revealed.
Guenter Halak: ![]()
![]()
Luca Marchetti: ![]()
![]()
Halak was ahead with middle pair, but Marchetti had two overcards and a gutshot. The
turn bricked, however, the
river gave Marchetti a winning straight and Halak was gone. Marchetti is not the biggest stack on the table, though, as Yaron Ben Avi has even more than that.
