Casillas Jams into Nuts to Double Degennaro
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Each of Daniele Degennaro under the gun, Jose Casillas in the cutoff and Luca Fagioli in the small blind had committed 4,300 preflop to see a board of 9♠8♠3♠.
Action was checked to Degennaro, who fired out a bet of 2,500. Casillas responded with a raise to 13,900, forcing a fold from Fagioli, before Degennaro called.
The 7♣ hit on the turn, and Degennaro checked. Casillas quickly announced "All-in" with the covering stack, and Degennaro's chips almost beat him to the middle.
Casillas said "I'm drawing dead" as he tabled Q♥Q♣, and he was right as Degennaro showed A♠10♠ for the flopped nut flush. The 6♦ river completed the board.
