Minko Calls Down Rizzo
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Three-handed on a flop of J♠6♣6♠, Vladimir Minko bet 5,000 from the hijack and Pedro Padilha called on the button. Leonardo Rizzo then raised to 14,000 in the big blind, and both opponents called.
Rizzo led out for 22,000 on the Q♥ turn, and both Minko and Padilha again called. Rizzo then bet 35,000 on the 2♣ river and Minko called, while Padilha laid down K♠10♠.
Rizzo showed K♦J♥ for two pair, but Minko had Q♣J♦ for queens and jacks to win the big pot.
