Rocco Gets Sticky, Then Bombs the River
Level 32
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Michael Rocco limped in from the cutoff with 10♣9♣ as Nils Pudel and Kasparas Klezys came along in the blinds.
The flop came 10♥7♦4♠ and Rocco bet 500,000 with top pair. Pudel called holding A♦J♦, but Klezys raised to 1,800,000.
Rocco called and Pudel got out of the way as the A♣ fell on the turn. Klezys then fired out 3,400,000 and Rocco again called.
The Q♣ fell on the river and Klezys slowed down and checked. Rocco, leaning back in his chair, paused for a moment before pushing in 8,400,000. Klezys snap-folded 7♥3♣ as Rocco took the pot to climb over 20,000,000.
