Sorrentino Crippled After Doubling Yared

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Raffaele Sorrentino
Raffaele Sorrentino

Ghassan Yared was the one to open as he made it 6,000. His neighbor, Raffaele Sorrentino who he had battled with before, three-bet to 17,500. Action folded back to Yared and he called.

Yared checked on {5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} and called Sorrentino's 15,500 bet.

The {8-Clubs} hit the turn and Yared checked once more. Sorrentino fired 26,500 and Yared moved in for 110,300 total, 83,800 more to Sorrentino.

The 2017 PokerStars Championship Monte-Carlo champion (€466,714/$508,281) and 2017 PokerStars Championship Barcelona 3rd place finisher (€850,110/$999,318) tanked long and hard before he eventually called.

Ghassan Yared: {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}
Raffaele Sorrentino: {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Sorrentino needed a diamond but wouldn't get one. Instead, the {9-Clubs} popped up to complete the board and Sorrentino parted ways with the majority of his stack.
