Messina Makes Full House for Huge Double-Up
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
In a pot of 63,000, Stefan Lehner, under the gun, checked the 10♥J♦7♦Q♣ turn over to Renato Messina in the cutoff, who bet 55,000. Lehner then raised to 228,000, and Messina called.
The 10♦ river prompted a check from Lehner, after which Messina moved all in for 172,000. Lehner snap-called with A♦K♥6♦4♠ for Broadway, but Messina had rivered the better hand with K♦Q♠Q♥2♦.
His full house brought him a massive double-up, sitting with a stack of over 140 big blinds.
