Traniello Chipping Up

Level 4 : 200/400, 0 ante

Catching the action on the {9-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop, the player first to act bet out. Marco Traniello and a third opponent in position both called. The turn was the {q-Spades} and with just 1,000 behind, the first player led out for a big bet worth 400. Traniello called and the third player folded. The river was the {2-Spades} and both players checked.

Opponent: {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Traniello: {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Having avoided the flush draw, Traniello chipped up to 17,000.
