Di Cicco Loves the Ladies

In a preflop raising war, Massimo Di Cicco ended up shoving all in for about 33,000 on what appeared to be a five-bet shove. After just a few seconds of consideration, his four-betting opponent made the call for his last ~29,000, and it was a big coin flip as the cards were turned up.

Showdown
Di Cicco: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}

The {8-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs} flop shot Mr. Opponent into the lead, but Di Cicco had flopped the flush draw to give himself another nine outs to the win.

Turn: {10-Clubs}

That'll do. Mr. Opponent was thusly eliminated one card early, and the {5-Spades} river was nothing more than a formality.

After dragging that knockout pot, the Italian has nearly doubled to about 64,000.
