Palumbo Makes a Big Call to Double
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Action folded to Rocco Palumbo in the small blind and he raised to 6,200. Big blind Bart Lybaert called to see a flop in position.
Palumbo bet 6,000 on 
and Lybaert called. Palumbo then checked the 
on the turn, and called Lybaert's 11,500-bet.
The 
river saw Palumbo check. Lybaert shoved all in to put Palumbo to the test for his last 37,400 in chips. Palumbo tanked long and hard and eventually called.
Lybaert showed 
for the nut low, the pot went to Palumbo who tabled 
for third-pair.
Lybaert never recovered from that blow, he busted not much later with 
up against
