Daniele Mazzia With a Reason To Smile

In what has become the recent trend, Daniele Mazzia opened for a raise all in. Action folded to Davidi Kitai and he made the call. Mazzia winced, knowing he was likely behind and sure enough he was. The players showed:

Kitai: {10-?}

{10-?}

{10-?}

Mazzia:

{Q-?}

{10-?}

The flop came {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

leaving Kitai in the lead but giving Mazzia an open ended straight draw. The {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

on the turn helped neither player but Mazzia supporters erupted when the river fell the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

. He made the straight to put Kitai's otherwise dominating hand in 2nd place. Mazzia, who was down to just 80,000 chips not long ago, is now sitting on a workable stack of 671,000.
