Rocco Bites Scott

Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Under the gun, Michael Rocco opened to 10,000, and he found one call from Robert Scott in the big blind. The two men went off to a {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs} flop, and it checked through to the {7-Spades} turn. That's where the fireworks came. Scott led out for 25,000, and Rocco promptly raised to 60,000 straight. Not to be outdone, Scott shoved over the top, and Rocco snap-called all in for 175,500 total. Cards up, gents.

Showdown
Rocco: {10-Clubs} {J-Hearts}
Scott: {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

Well, that's why Rocco snap-called. He'd flopped the nuts, and Scott needed to find a jack just to chop it up. The river was the blank {10-Hearts}, though, and Rocco has notched a big double up. He's now challenging for the lead with 380,000 after knocking Scott down to 415,000.
