Spitale Good at Showdown
Level 2
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Marc Schembri opened to 900 from middle position, and Giuseppe Spitale called in the cutoff.
On the 9♣5♣5♦ flop, Schembri continued with a bet of 700, which failed to shake off Spitale.
The same pattern followed on the 8♦ turn, this time in respect of double-barrel of 1,700 from Schembri.
The 8♠ river led to a double-paired board, and Schembri check-called a bet of 6,000 from Spitale.
Spitale tabled J♥9♦ for two pair, nines and eights, and Schembri mucked.
