Oikonomou Spikes Two-Outer to Triple
There was an open, before Tomasso Maione three-bet to 11,000 from the cutoff. That was only the start of the action, as Sokratis Oikonomou cold four-bet jammed for 52,000 from the small blind.
Francesco Romanello was in the big blind, and he took a brief period for thought before cold five-bet ripping his 108,000 stack into the middle.
The opener took quite a bit of time before folding, and Maione, with about 80,000 behind, was absolutely pained by the situation he found himself in. Eventually he made the call, to create a huge three-way all-in scenario.
Sokratis Oikonomou: J♠J♣
Tomasso Maione: A♣K♠
Francesco Romanello: Q♠Q♦
It was a crazy cooler, and Maione, after asking the opener if he folded an ace, and receiving a nod, said "I knew it, that's why I was tanking".
Maione stood up and muttered about how gross the spot was, and the dealer fanned the J♥9♠4♦ flop, putting Oikonomou in front with top set.
Maione continued to lament the scenario as the 7♣ hit on the turn, but his mood was brightened slightly when the A♠ appeared on the river, to give him a 32,000 side-pot against Romanello.
