Di Nicola Hits the River For Massive Double
Level 29
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Heads-up on a board of 8♣6♠K♠7♦, Andreas Paleologos bet 400,000 from the button before Ermanno Di Nicola moved all in for 1,700,000 in the big blind.
Paleologos snap-called and turned over K♥7♥ for two pair. Di Nicola had 10♠8♠ for a pair and a flush draw.
Di Nicola stood up to await the river, which came the 2♠. "Yes," he cried out, completing his flush to double up in a 4,000,000 chip pot while decimating Paleologos' stack.
