Ortelli Ships Near Six-Figure Pot After Binking Turn
Maurizio Agrello under the gun, Guido Ortelli in middle position, and Andrea Miroli on the button were three-way to a flop of 5♠A♦7♥. With 7,000 in the pot, the action checked to Miroli on the button, who fired a bet of 5,000.
Agrello then raised to 15,000, which both Ortelli and Miroli called. The 9♣ turn slowed down Agrello as he checked to Ortelli. Ortelli fired 12,300, seeing Miroli put in his stack of 24,400.
Agrello spent some time in the tank before folding, after which Ortelli quickly called off for 23,700.
Guido Ortelli: 9♠9♦ 
Andrea Miroli: 7♦7♣
Miroli had flopped a set but was in dire straits against Ortelli's turned higher set. Miroli begged for a seven on the river, but the Q♣ came instead, leaving him with just 700 chips.
Ortelli, meanwhile, scooped up the pot worth over three starting stacks and ascended towards the top of the leaderboard.
