Barabino Chips Up

In a battle of the blinds, Rick Barabino put his opponent to the test for all his chips holding {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

His opponent in the big blind, however, was willing to put his tournament life on the line and called off his chips with {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

The board ran out {J-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} to see Barabino find his three-outer and send an opponent to the rail as he soared to 438,000 in chips.
