Matthew Cerbone opened to 1,200 in middle position and was called by Robert Saladin in the cutoff. Michael Azzaro then three-bet to 5,700 from the small blind and both opponents called.

Azzaro led out on the 10♥K♦8♠ flop for 5,000 and only Saladin tossed in the call. The 4♣ turn saw Azzaro moved all in for 21,000, earning the pot as Saladin quickly folded.

PokerStars PA SCOOP
PokerStars PA SCOOP

From March 21 through April 7, PokerStars PA hosted the Pennsylvania Spring Championship of Online Poker (PA SCOOP). The entire series – of which there were 43 numbered events, each with low, medium, and high buy-ins – catered to a combined 39,695 entrants and awarded $2,436,277.40 in prize money.

One of the big storylines of the online festival was the sheer number of repeat winners, many of whom are well-known grinders in the segregated market. A quartet of players tied for most titles with four apiece in “NutFlopper412”, “Dionysus1888”, “dabigquk1”, and “OMC Escher”.

Meanwhile, nine players notched three titles each, while another eight were on the board with a pair of titles. That included established Pennsylvania poker pro Zach ”KennyTheRipper” Gruneberg, a two-time WSOP PA Online bracelet winner and 10-time gold ring winner.
