Traniello Doubles Up
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Marco Traniello raised to 28,000 in the big blind, and Glen Cunnington asked how much Traniello had behind. Traniello showed Cunnington that he had 5,000 behind. Cunnington put Traniello all in and we were heads-up to the flop with one player at risk.
Marco Traniello: J♥Q♠Q♣8♣
Glen Cunnington: 2♣10♠5♠7♦
On a flop of A♥10♦4♦ Traniello was in the lead with his queens leaving Cunnington looking for a ten for trips or a three for a wheel straight.
The turn brought a K♣ no help for Cunnington as Traniello's queens still held, Cunnington left with a sweat.
A river card of the 8♥ didn't change the outcome of the hand, and Traniello doubled to 66,000 with the table breaking shortly after.
