Sammartino's Rise Hits a Hurdle
Level 11
: Limits 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Day 2 entrant Dario Sammartino has been building a stack and was involved in a three-way pot just minutes ago.
Ryan Johnson raised from early position and Jake Schwartz made the call in the hijack. Sammartino came along in the cutoff to see the 5♣9♠2♥ flop.
A round of bets went into the middle to the A♠ turn, where all three players checked. The dealer turned over the 3♦ river, producing another trio of checks from the players.
Johnson showed A♥6♥5♠2♦ for the low, while Schwartz tabled A♣10♥9♦2♣ for a superior two pair to claim the high. Sammartino could only muck, but his starting stack has grown over the last level.
