Ronconi Over a Million

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

In what appears to have been a massive cooler, Kristen Bicknell got it in against Darryl Ronconi. Bicknell had Ronconi covered and all that was left to report was the aftermath. The board read {4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{5-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {j-Spades}.

Bicknell had tabled {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a flopped straight and nut flush draw to go along with her straight flush draw. Ronconi had shown {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a turned full house after flopping two pairs. Ronconi got a full double for roughly 560,000, sending him into the top five chip stacks on the day.
