River Prevents Accornero's Double-Up
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Three-way to a flop of K♥8♦A♥, Luca Accornero bet 4,000 into the pot of 12,500 from the big blind. Massimiliano Conti folded in early position, but Francesco Cundari called in the hijack.
Accornero then pushed all in for 9,500 on the 6♦ turn, quickly being looked up by his opponent.
Luca Accornero: A♠Q♥ 
Francesco Cundari: A♦J♠
Accornero had a big lead with his better kicker, but the 8♥ river chopped up the pot as both players ended with aces and eights with a king kicker.
