Corcione Gets There

Picking up the action after a {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop, Robert Corcione and a second player checked. Matt Glantz bet 3,700, Corcione called, and the third player in the hand popped it to 10,025. Glantz folded immediately, but Corcione spent a good two minutes in the tank before re-raising to 23,500.

A quick re-raise all in for about 32,000 came from his opponent and Corcione had little choice but to call with {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Corcione was behind the {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} of his opponent, but the {9-Spades} landed on the turn to fill up Corcione. Though his opponent had an out to a straight flush, he was basically packed up and ready to leave by the time the {2-Hearts} hit the river.
