Andrei Boghean opened to 12,000 from middle position and was called by Alessio Isaia in the big blind.

The flop came 8♠4♠4♣ and Isaia check-called an 8,000 bet from Boghean.

Both players checked the 6♦ turn leading to the 2♠ river. Isaia bet 32,000, sending Boghean briefly into the tank.

After about two minutes Boghean flicked in the call and received the bad news when Isaia turned over 7♠5♦ for a turned straight to take down a decent pot.

Alessio Isaia	425,000 41,000	41,000
Andrei Boghean	175,000 60,000	60,000
