Alessio Isaia Doubles Up

Alessio Isaia just doubled up through Jackson Genovesi.

Isiai opened to 32,000 from under the gun only to see Genovesi three-bet to 92,000. The action folded back to Isaia and he tanked for close to two minutes before deciding to flat call, despite only having 250,000 behind.

The flop came down {6-Diamonds}[4g]{2-Spades}, Isaia checked, Genovesi bet enough to put Isaia all-in and he was called.

Isaia: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Genovesi: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

Isaia was nicely in front but needed to avoid a king or ace or running cards for a straight. The {3-Diamonds} gave Genovesi outs to the straight but the {3-Spades} kept Isaia in front and he is back up to around 800,000.
