After a player in middle position raised to 2,500, Igor Picone called in the hijack. The cutoff then raised to 9,000, which both players called.
Seeing a flop of 8♦J♠5♠, the three-bettor continued for 10,000, which only Picone called.
The 7♦ hit the turn, and Picone checked for a second time. His opponent put out another bet, a more substantial 33,000.
After taking a moment to decide the best course of action, Picone moved all in for 81,000. His opponent confirmed the amount before making the call.
Igor Picone: 7♠7♣ 
Opponent: A♦Q♦
The 9♠ was a clean river for Picone, seeing him scoop in a full double up.
