Portaro Gets There

[user67765]

Bruno Portaro limped in from early position before being raised to 700. The big blind made the call and Portaro came along to see a {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{7-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

flop.

Action checked to the preflop aggressor who fired 1,500. The big blind folded but Portaro made the call.

The turn was the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

and Portaro check-called for 3,000 before the {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

completed the board. Both players checked it down and the cards were table.

The late position player flipped {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

for just ace-high but Portaro got there with his creative {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

flush. He's now chipped back up over his starting stack.
