Max "the Italian Pirate" Pescatori on Day 1

Hold'em:

We caught the action on the flop as Max Pescatori and PokerStars Team Pro Andre Akkari played a heads-up hand.

Flop: {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

Pescatori, known as the "Italian Pirate", led out for a bet of 1,200 and Akkari made the call. The turn card came {6-Clubs} and both players checked the action.

River: {10-Hearts}

Pescatori led out for a bet of 2,400 and Akkari made the crying call. The Pirate's {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} proved to be good enough and Akkari mucked his hand. We will keep you updated as these two veterans of the tournament circuit continue to do battle.
