Paciella Exits

[user80015]

Jay Colombo opened to 12,000 from early position before Michael Paciella pushed all in from the small blind. Arthur Lee made the call from the big blind as did Colombo to see the flop of {Q-Clubs}

.

Colombo bet out 10,000 and Lee made the call, before also calling 18,000 when the turn fell the {6-Spades}

.

The river of the {10-Hearts}

was checked down and Paciella tabled his {A-Clubs}

to behind both Lee's {9-Clubs}

and Colombo's {A-Hearts}

as he headed to the rail.

Simon Stumbles

[user80015]

We just caught a very peculiar hand involving one of our chip leaders Charles Simon.

On the flop of {A-Spades}

a player in early position open-shoved for his last 42,700 and after some deliberation Charles Simon made the call.

The all in player turned over {A-Clubs}

for top pair and a back-door flush-draw, while Simon turned over {K-Spades}
