Scaicca Drills the River to Double Off Salerno
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Elia Salerno raised to 20,000 in the hijack and Antonio Sciacca called in the small blind.
Salerno continued for 20,000 on the 10♠4♥2♠ flop, and Sciacca raised to 75,000. Salerno called, and the 9♣ fell on the turn.
Sciacca then moved all in for 216,000, and Salerno took a minute before calling with K♦10♣ for top pair. Sciacca had K♠J♠ for flush and straight draws, and he spiked the Q♣ on the river to make his straight and double up.
