After Four Minutes, Fazzolari Doubles Through Rowe

Antonio Fazzolari
Antonio Fazzolari
Well that was odd. Martin Rowe opened under the gun for 110,000. He was called only by the big blind, Antonio Fazzolari. Fazzolari check-called a bet of 150,000 after the flop came down {7-Spades} {9-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}. On the turn {2-Spades}, Fazzolari led out for 200,000. Rowe raised to 600,000, a raise that Fazzolari quickly reraised all in for a total of 365,000.

Fazzolari stood from the table, reeking of strength as he waited for Rowe to act. Despite the fact that Rowe was getting better than five-to-one on his money, he tanked for a solid four minutes before finally calling with {J-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}, an open-ended straight draw. Fazzolari tabled {Q-Clubs} {7-Hearts} for two pair. He could have been eliminated if the river came an eight or a king, but it was the {A-Hearts}. He doubled up to 2.3 million. Rowe is down to 3.9 million.
