Pellegrino Spikes a Straight

Bryan Pellegrino has been down throughout the heads-up play - but don't count him out yet.

In a recent hand, Nick Jivkov completed from the button and Pellegrino checked his option to see a flop, which came {2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Both players checked and the turn brought the {10-Spades}. Pellegrino bet 50,000 and Jivkov made the call.

When an {A-Clubs} landed on the river, Pellegrino counted out a 150,000 bet and slid it into the middle. Jivkov thought it over and eventually called.

Pellegrino turned over {10-Hearts}{4-Spades} for a rivered straight and Jivkov mucked his hand.

Pellegrino is back up to 550,000.
