Bartolotta Wakes Up with Big Slick at Just the Right Time

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Cameron Bartolotta has been on a little heater the past couple levels.

In a recent hand, a player in the hijack open-shipped for 35,400 and the small blind thought long and hard before announcing a call, which left him just 2,000 behind. Those last couple thousand went in soon thereafter when Cameron Bartolotta moved all in from the big blind.

Bartolotta: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Small Blind: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Hijack: {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Everyone was in the same wheelhouse, but Bartolotta had the best of it. The {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop failed to hit anyone, but it gave Bartolotta an even bigger lead with flush blockers. The {10-Hearts} turn opened up some straight draws for Bartolotta's opponents, but the {6-Diamonds} river failed to complete them.

Bartolotta's Big Slick held to send two players to the rail and send Bartolotta soaring over 150K.
