Italy's Paolo Caverzaghi already doubled his stack on the €2/€5 no-limit hold'em feature table with a big hand against Kevin Malone.

The hand began with Malone straddling for €10 before Andrea Iengo raised from one seat over with {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. Caverzaghi called from the cut-off with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, Arkadiusz Kolodziejczyk called from the small blind with {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, and Malone completed the preflop action with {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

The action was checked to Caverzaghi after the flop came {K-Spades}{10-Clubs}{J-Spades} and he bet out for €48 with an open-ended straight-draw. Kolodziejczyk folded before Malone with top-pair jacked up the action to €150.

Iengo got out of the way and Caverzaghi called.

The {9-Diamonds} on the turn gave Caverzaghi the straight. Malone jammed his stack which more than covered the slightly more than €500 that his opponent had behind. Caverzaghi quickly called before the duo agreed to run the river three-times.

Malone was in about as rough shape as he could be in without drawing completely dead having just two outs for a chopped pot. Neither the {Q-Spades} or the {Q-Diamonds} appeared on any of the three rivers and Caverzaghi shipped a huge pot of over €1,400.
