Fluereci on Piles as Finlay Bricks Combo Draw

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Robert Fluereci
Robert Fluereci

Robert Fluereci, who finished eighth in the Irish Open Main Event last year, had opened his button and called when Wayne Finlay flicked in a three-bet from the big blind.

Fluereci placed a continuation-bet on the 3K5 flop, which Fluereci called. Finlay seemed to slow down on the 4 turn, checking it over to Fluereci.

With the pot having grown to about 18,000, Fluereci took the initiative with a bet of 14,000. Finlay then moved all in for about 50,000, and Fluereci quickly called with the covering stack.

Wayne Finlay: A10 All in
Robert Fluereci: 54

Finlay needed to hit a flush or a straight to double up, but he made a pair on the A river instead. Fluereci's two pair remained best, and he shipped the massive pot to be among the leaders in the room.
