Daniel Lupo

In Level 11 with blinds of 600/1,200 and an ante of 150, "jrmoney81924" opened to 2,640 under the gun and "1st.p1ace" called in middle position. Dan "AvaGray" Lupo three-bet jammed for 17,133 and action folded back to "1st.p1ace", who called to send the two off to the races.

Dan "AvaGray" Lupo: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
"1st.p1ace": {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Lupo's sixes were out in front and remained there through the flop {8-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. The turn {8-Clubs} gave "1st.p1ace" the nut flush draw and two more counterfeit outs to a double-paired board. Such outs proved to be too many for Lupo to fade as the river {j-Spades} completed the runout, giving "1st.p1ace" a better two pair and sending Lupo to re-enter as a result.
