Rubie Takes on Palumbo
Level 7
: 150/300, 25 ante
World Poker Tour Venice champion Rocco Palumbo opened to 600 from under the gun and the action passed all the way around to Brendon Rubie who was seated on the button. Rubie, who has made the trip from Australia, three-bet to 1,550 and Palumbo called.
The pair saw the dealer spread the 
flop, a flop that Palumbo check-called a 1,700 bet from Rubie. That was the last of the action as both players checked the arrival of the 
turn and 
river, Palumbo mucking before he even saw Rubie's hand. Rubie held 
, by the way.
