Palumbo Doubles Up

Level 20 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Jakub Michalak opened to 165,000 and Rocco Palumbo defended. The flop was {A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, Palumbo checked, Michalak bet 140,000 and Palumbo called. On the {10-Spades} turn, Palumbo check-called a 345,000 bet from Michalak.

The river was the {6-Clubs}. Palumbo checked a third time and Michalak calmly shoved all in. It gave Palumbo a headache, but after spending the better part of a minute thinking he committed his last 785,000.

Michalak showed {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} for king-high and Palumbo scooped it up with {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for just a pair of fives.
