Ronconi Busts Two in Massive Race

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

A player in early position raised all in for his last 30,000, and one spot behind him, Daryl Ronconi quickly moved all in for 235,000 to isolate. It folded around to the button, who had about the same stack, and as soon as he looked down at his cards, he took a deep breath, and capped them. He sat back in his chair, and tanked for at least two minutes, all the while unable to stay in the same position for more then 15 seconds. Eventually, he announced call. The rest of the table folded, and the cards were tabled.

Ronconi: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Opponent 1: {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Button: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Ronconi didn't catch anything on the flop: {6-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, but the turn, the {k-Spades}, gave Ronconi the big lead. The {a-Diamonds} on the river gave him an unnecessary better two pair, and Ronconi jumped up to 460,000 after scoring the double KO.
