Donnini's Stack Drops Further
Level 38
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Vasyl Palandiuk opened his K♣Q♦ to 2,000,000 in the cutoff. Danilo Donnini fancied a flop with 8♦6♣ in the big blind, and flicked in calling chips.
The J♣7♦6♥ flop was checked through to the Q♠ turn, where Donnini led out for 2,000,000. Palandiuk just called with his top pair, after which the K♦ river completed the board.
Donnini slowed down and checked. Palandiuk, having been upgraded to two pair, slid 6,800,000 into the middle, winning the pot when Donnini quickly mucked his bottom pair.
