Can a Finn Make an Italian Fold?
Judging purely on the result of this hand, the resounding answer would be no.
The flop was reading and PokerStars qualifier Aki Votkin had check-raised all in for 33,450 over the top of a 5,700 bet from Ignazio Calendrino. The latter tanked for a couple of minutes, "King-king? Ace-ace?" he inquired.
Finally Calendrino decided he couldn't relinquish his hand and made the call, turning over for merely top two pair. Votkin looked sad, his having been outflopped and the Finn was unable to spike a set on the turn or river. Calendrino has about 70,000 while Votkin is almost out.
