Sammartino Doubles Through Greenwood

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Dario Sammartino
Dario Sammartino

Italy's Dario Sammartino raised to 1,000 from early position and Sam Greenwood called from the small blind. The player in the big came along and three players took a flop of {5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

Greenwood checked, the big blind bet 1,700, and Sammartino called. Greenwood then sprung to life with a check-raise to 5,700, which was enough to get the big blind to fold. Sammartino wasn't so easy to push off though as he instead moved all in for 15,075. Greenwood called.

Greenwood: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Sammartino: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

Sammartino got it in with his flush draw, and he hit it on the {4-Hearts} turn. He didn't want to see another heart on the river, which would give Greenwood a bigger flush, and he didn't as the safe {Q-Clubs} peeled off. Ship the double to Sammartino.
