Gal Leaves With Cracked Aces
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Daniele Pizzuto had raised to 1,000 in middle position and was three-bet by Vlad Gal in the cutoff. Pizzuto then put in his stack of 18,300 and was snap-called by Gal, who played exactly the same amount.
Daniele Pizzuto: K♠K♣ 
Vlad Gal: A♥A♦
The ultimate cooler had occurred, and it looked like the end for Pizzuto. However, the 5♥K♥8♣Q♣4♥ board bailed him out, flopping him a set and eliminating Gal instead.
