WSOP APAC Bracelet Winner Looking for More Success at Crown Melbourne
Back in October, Scott Calcagno topped a field of 250 to win the 2014 World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific Event $4 AU$1,650 No-Limit Hold'em Terminator for AU$61,250 and a gold bracelet. It was a career achievement, but he's no doubt hoping to add an Aussie Millions Main Event title to his résumé.
In a recent hand, there was 6,000 or so in the pot and a board reading 
when a player in middle position checked to Calcagno, who thought for a few moments before doing the same. After the dealer burned and turned the 
, the middle-position player bet 2,400 and Calcagno just called. When the 
completed the board on the river, both players returned to checking.
The middle-position player showed the 
for a missed flush that turned into top pair, but it was no good as Calcagno rolled over the 
for an overpair.
"I'm sure you were check-raising the flop?" Calcagno asked. He received an affirmative answer, and had that happened, this pot could have been much bigger than it turned out to be.
