Rocky Start for Sammartino
Level 25
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
We just saw a board of 
on which Dario Sammartino checked to Oren Rosen who bet 174,000 from the cutoff. The clock was eventually called on Sammartino, and he called in the dying seconds.
Rosen showed 
for trips and knocked the Italian pro down to just 210,000 chips.
On the very next hand Sammartino moved all in, and Jimmy Guerrero made the call.
Sammartino: 
Guerrero: 
The board ran out 
and Sammartino doubled up back up.
