Bellinghieri Falling Down the Ranks

Giuseppe Bellinghieri raised to 650,000 from under the gun at a five-handed table. Joris Ruijs called, defending his big blind.

When Ruijs checked on the 6♥7♠5♦ flop, Bellinghieri continued for 475,000, which Ruijs called.

The dealer burned and turned the 3♠ turn card, seeing Ruijs lead out for 850,000, which Bellinghieri called.

Ruijs then constructed a much bigger bet on the 2♦ river, sliding 2,700,000 into the middle. Bellinghieri snap-called only to receive the bad news.

Ruijs flipped over A♠4♥ for a straight, and Bellinghieri mucked his cards.
