Pireddu's Turn to Pick Up Kings
Level 9
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Gianni Pireddu in the cutoff and an opponent on the button got all their chips in the middle before the flop.
Opponent: Q♣J♣
Gianni Pireddu: K♣K♦
Pireddu hit a set on the 4♥K♠A♥ flop, while his opponent picked up a straight draw. The 3♥ turn was no help, and Pireddu stayed in front on the 5♠ river to secure the pot.
The stacks were counted down and Pireddu had 28,000 remaining, barely having his opponent covered and sending him to the rail.
