The Ricci Gets Richer

Level 1 : 100/300, 300 ante
Andrea Ricci
Andrea Ricci

With 8,000 to the middle on the {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop, Boban Zhivkovikj check-called a bet worth 3,500 by Andrea Ricci and the {10-Diamonds} turn was checked by both players. Zhivkovikj then led the {3-Clubs} river for 10,000 and Ricci called rather swiftly to get shown the {a-Spades}{k-Spades}.

Ricci had that beat with the {6-Spades}{6-Hearts} for just a pair of sixes and continued his early rise on Day 1a.

On the same table, Ali Amelipour check-raised the {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop from 1,000 to 3,400 and Wissam Turkie folded the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}. Amelipour flashed {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for the top pair and won the pot.
