Piccioli Goes All-in and Loses

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Bryan Piccioli
Bryan Piccioli

Play was already underway with Bryan Piccioli in cutoff and Dejan Kaladjurdjevic on the button with a 800,000 pot beside a 45A.

Piccioli check-called Kaladjurdjevic's 250,000 bet taking them to the turn.

The 8 turn fell and after action was passed to him, Kaladjurdjevic fired 625,000 sending Piccioli to the tank. After a few seconds, Piccioli folded his hand and asked Kaladjurdjevic if he had it. Kaladjurdjevic answered in the negative, prompting Piccioli to say, "I should have shoved on you."

On the very next hand, in hijack, Picioli opened with 175,000 and when action went to the small blind, Paulina Loeliger asked how much Piccioli started with. After she was given an answer she announced all-in.

With action back to him, Piccioli called for his tournament life.

Bryan Piccioli: A9 All in
Paulina Loeliger: KJ

Piccioli was ahead with ace-high but Loeliger's outs increased on the 8108 which gave her a flush draw. The A fell which gave Piccioli a pair but completed Loeliger's flush. The Q river was a formality.
