One for Petrecca

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Schmuel Cohen raised to 300 from mid-position and was called by Dario Guarnuto in the hijack, Dylan Petrecca in the cutoff and Victor Olinger in the big blind.

The flop came {8-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, everyone checked to Petrecca who bet 800 and only Guarnato made the call.

The turn was the {5-Clubs}, Guarnato check-called the 1,625 continuation-bet of Petrecca.

The river completed the board with the {3-Spades} and they both checked. Guarnato tabled {7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for the turned pair of fives but that couldn't beat the {k-Spades}{q-Spades} of Petrecca who had flopped top pair.
