Pacifici Building Up

A player opened the pot with a raise to 800 and another player called before action got to Jared Pacifici. He called as well and it was three ways to the flop. The flop came down {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and the original raiser fired 2,000. The next player folded, but Pacifici made the call. The turn brought the {3-Clubs} and action checked to Pacifici. He fired 2,400 and won the pot.

Upon seeing our reporter writing down the hand Pacifici joked, "That's too boring, don't do it!"

Pacifici did let us know about a bigger hand he played and here's how he described the action to us.

A player raised to 800 from the hijack seat and the cutoff called. The small blind called and then Pacifici reraised from the big blind to 3,300 with the {A-Spades}{3-Diamonds}. The original raiser and the small blind both called. After the flop came down {K-Spades}{9-}{3-Spades}, the small blind and Pacifici checked. The next player, who was the one to start all of the raising preflop, fired 6,100. The small blind folded and then Pacifici raised all in for 23,700. His opponent folded and Pacifici picked up the pot.

Pacifici is sitting with around 56,000 in chips right now, a stack that's well above average.
