Cucchiara Stays Alive with a Double
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 0 ante
After a couple of preflop raises, Frank Cucchiara and Wesley Fei got all of their chips in the middle with Cucchiara being the player at risk for 62,500.
Frank Cucchiara: 5♠5♦
Wesley Fei: K♠Q♦
The flop came J♥6♠2♣ and Cucchiara stayed in front with his pair of fives. The A♦ on the turn gave some hope to Fei but the J♣ on the river was the wrong face card, sending Cucchiara a double up.
