Skanis Hits the Turn to Beat Cappiello's Queens
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Candido Cappiello raised to 80,000 from early position and Renars Skanis three-bet to 250,000 from the hijack. After it folded back to Cappiello, he called to see the flop.
The dealer fanned out a flop of 4♦4♥10♥ and Cappiello check-called a bet of 150,000 from Skanis.
The A♠ turn checked through and the 7♣ dropped on the river. Cappiello bet 210,000 and Skanis snap-called. Cappiello showed Q♠Q♣ for a pair of queens but lost to the A♦5♠ of Skanis for a pair of aces on the turn.
