From the cutoff, Uri Reichenstein opened to 13,000. Then in the small blind, Giovanni Giudice three-bet to 50,000. The big blind folded, and Reichenstein called.
On the flop 4♥2♦3♣, Giovanni Giudice made a continuation bet of 26,000. An after a long moment Reichenstein called to find the K♠ on the turn.
Giudice took some time to make a decision. But he eventually fired out a second barrel of 89,000. Reichenstein thought about it for a full minute too, and called again.
Finally, the J♥ came on the river and Giovanni Giudice moved all in. Reichenstein snap called with his last 140,000 chips and showed 6♣5♣ for a straight hit on the flop. Quite unhappy, Giudice revealed K♥3♥ and is down to 55,000 chips.
