Turchi Runs Into Cappiello's Monster
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Candido Cappiello raised to 6,000 in early position and Virgile Turchi three-bet to 20,000 in the hijack. Cappiello then four-bet to 38,000 and Turchi moved all in for 80,000. Cappiello snap-called and Turchi let out a groan, knowing what was coming even before the cards were revealed.
Virgile Turchi: Q♥Q♣ 
Candido Cappiello: A♠A♥
Turchi's suspicions proved correct as Cappiello turned over a pair of aces. The board ran out J♠6♠4♥5♦8♠ and Turchi was sent to the rail.
"I 100% thought he was bluffing and that you were bluffing. What a great poker player I am," tablemate Andras Nemeth joked with Cappiello after the hand.
