Marchetti Loses a Couple Big Ones

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Picking up the action on the river with a completed board of {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, Luca Marchetti was facing a bet of 10,000 from his opponent William Jacobson. Marchetti tanked for over a minute before making the call. Jacobson turned over {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a straight while Marchetti flashed {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}.

In the next hand, Marchetti found himself in another big pot with David Hudson. The completed board read {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and Hudson checked to Marchetti who bet 10,000. Hudson check-raised to 25,000 and Marchetti paid him off. Hudson tabled {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for a full house while Marchetti held the losing hand again with {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Marchetti lost more chips off his stack as he slammed his hand on the table in frustration.
