Achille Sent to the Cage
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Yong Wang raised enough to put the small stacks in the blinds all in from the the button. Jacopo Achille obliged by sticking the rest of his stack in from the small blind and put himself at risk. Wang announced that he hadn't looked at his hand before the two went to a showdown.
Jacopo Achille: A♥10♦
Yong Wang: 8♥6♠
Achille was ahead, but the flop gave Wang more outs as it came 9♦9♣5♦.
The 6♣ turn was an unwelcome sight for Achille, and the K♦ river was no help to eliminate him from contention.
