The two men see the flop come down {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

. Both check.

The turn is the {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

. Pescatori leads out with 20,000, and Depa follows suit, paying to see the river.

It brings the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

. The Italian Pirate keeps the lead, betting out 35,000. Depa pauses for a minute before putting in a small raise to 75,000. Pescatori doesn't like it, but he makes the call. Depa shows {Q-Diamonds}
