Gaona Good at Showdown
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jose Gaona opened from early position, and received a call from Claudio Di Giacomo in middle position, before Ciprian Paunescu produced a three-bet to 13,000 from the small blind. Both of his opponents called.
The A♥A♦2♥ flop was checked to the 4♦ turn, where Paunescu checked once more. Gaona fired out a bet of 25,000, and only Di Giacomo called.
The 8♦ hit on the river and was checked through. Gaona tabled Q♥Q♣, and Di Giacomo nodded and mucked.
