Rocky Start for Sammartino

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

We just saw a board of {2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts} 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 {8-Spades}{9-Spades} 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: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Guerrero: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Sammartino doubled up back up.
