Bernardino Makes Full House
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Action folded around to Bruno Bernardino, who open-raised from the button. Pierre Calamusa three-bet from the big blind and Bernardino called.
The flop came 3♠9♣9♦ and Calamusa continued for 5,000, which Bernardino called. On the 4♣ turn, Calamusa slowed down with a check before Bernardino placed his own bet of 5,000 in the middle. Calamusa called to take the hand to the river.
Both players checked to showdown on the 9♥ river. Calamusa had A♦K♥ for ace-high with the trip nines on board. Bernardino had him beat with 5♠5♥ for a full house, nines full of fives, to win the pot.
