Caruso Stuns Palermino on the River
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
John Palermino raised to 3,000 in early position and Joseph Lebrun three-bet to 10,000 in middle position. Christopher Caruso then moved all in from the small blind and Palermino called for 55,000, while Lebrun got out of the way.
John Palermino: K♦K♣
Christopher Caruso: A♦Q♠
Palermino stood up from his seat as the Q♦6♦8♣6♠ board kept him in the lead with his kings. The river, though, brought the A♥, and Palermino leaned back and looked up at the ceiling in disbelief as Caruso took the pot to send him to the rail.
