Ronconi Gets a Full Double
Level 6
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Vlad Darie opened 16,000 in early position and Darryl Ronconi three-bet 50,000 next to act. Sajad Abud made the call but Darie got out of the way.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♣9♠4♥ and Ronconi checked to Abud who fired 50,000 into the middle. Ronconi jammed for 158,000 and Abud sigh-called.
Darryl Ronconi: A♦Q♦
Sajad Abud: 10♣10♦
Ronconi flopped top pair and was able to fade a ten as the 8♣ fell on the turn and the 9♥ on the river.
