Rocco Gains Back Big Lead

Rocco Palumbo had the button and raised it up to 100,000. Nelson Robinson made the call and a {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop was dealt. Robinson led for 180,000 here and Palumbo called.

On the {3-Diamonds} turn, Robinson again led, this time for 325,000 and Palumbo called. The {4-Clubs} completed the board on the river and Robinson threw out a bet of 510,000. Palumbo didn't take long to go all in over the top and Robinson mucked even quicker, sending the big pot to Palumbo.
