Barbieri Seeing Lots of Streets

[user75032]

Al Barbieri doesn't like to give up on third street. Now that we are three-handed, he is defending his bring-in with zeal and calling raises on third street after he has completed. In a recent hand against Mike Rocco, Barbieri completed the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

and called when Mike Rocco raised the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

. Rocco bet his {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

on fourth, and Barbieri called with the {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

. When fifth street came {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

to Barbieri, he led out with a bet against Rocco's {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

. Rocco tanked for about a minute, even grabbing Barbieri's {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

and shuffling it on the felt. He finally folded, and Barbieri flashed the {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

.
