Ellis Gives Cernuto a Good Caning

[user66118]

Miami John Cernuto completed with the {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

, and Freddie Ellis stayed in with the {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

up. On fourth street, Cernuto picked up an open pair with the {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

, and he double bet it. Ellis' {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

was worth a call. On fifth and sixth streets, Ellis called single bets from Cernuto.

Cernuto: (X-X) / {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{9-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

/ (X)
Ellis: (X-X) / {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

/ (X)

On seventh street, Cernuto slowed down, tapping the table. Ellis took the opportunity to bet, and Cernuto called him down. Ellis opened up {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

, which was more than Cernuto could beat. Ellis' queen-high flush was plenty good enough to chip him up to 265,000, leaving Miami John with less than 50,000.
