Nodea Turns Top Pair

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

The flop read {4-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Clubs}, Stefano Tiziani checked in the small blind and Omri Zaidman did the same in the big blind. Andrei Nodea bet 550 and only Tiziani made the call.

The turn brought them the {a-Diamonds} on which they both checked through to the {j-Hearts} on the river. Terziani checked for the last time, Nodea bet 1,500 and Terziani needed some more time. He stared at the board, trying to figure out his options, glanced at Nodea and then called. Nodea tabled {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for the turned pair of aces to make Terziani muck his own hand.
