Rocco Traps

What started out as a quiet hand turned into a big pot for Mike Rocco. After Al Barbieri brought it in with the {4-Spades}, Rocco limped behind with the {6-Clubs}. Barbieri led the betting on every street to sixth street. Rocco called every time until putting in a raise on sixth street. The boards at that point were:

Barbieri: {4-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {8-Spades}
Rocco: {6-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}

Barbieri called the raise, then called a bet on the river. Rocco turned over two aces in the hole for trip aces. Barbieri nodded his head, said, "Two pair," and then mucked his hand.
