Traniello Turns Away

Marco Traniello
Marco Traniello
The hijack raised to 550 and Marco Traniello called out of the big blind, taking us to a flop of {6-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{3-Spades}.

After Traniello check-called 800, we saw the {Q-Spades} on the turn. Traniello checked again and his opponent bet out 1,400. Traniello studied the board for awhile before reluctantly releasing his hand.
