Moscati Spikes a Ten to Stay Alive
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Vincent Moscati limped in the cutoff before Sergio Benso raised to 24,000 on the button. The blinds quickly folded and the action was back on Moscati who announced all-in. Benso went into the tank and for a count after about a minute. The dealer let him know it was 117,000 and he pushed a stack of 5,000 chips across the line to make the call.
Vincent Moscati: 10♠10♥
Sergio Benso: J♣J♠
Moscati looked to be in disgust as the hands were revealed, however, the 10♦7♠2♠ flop changed his mood, giving him top set. He was able to fade the two outs of his opponent as the board completed with the 4♦ on the turn and the 2♣ on the river.
