Ruggeri Gets Paid With the Nuts

Renars Skanis raised to 160,000 from the hijack with Umberto Ruggeri calling from the cutoff and Can Miral defending his big blind.

The action checked to Skanis on the Q♠8♠6♥ flop and he bet 200,000. Ruggeri called, but Miral folded.

The 4♠ dropped on the turn and Skanis opted to check. Ruggeri bet 400,000 and Skanis called.

Skanis checked again on the A♦ river and Ruggeri fired out a bet of 1,250,000. Skanis thought for a few moments before making the call.

Ruggeri flipped over the nuts with A♠J♠ and Skanis mucked his cards.
