"Always a Sweat" For Bendinelli in Big Pot Against Radicchi
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Vlad Darie raised to 6,000 under the gun and Giuliano Bendinelli three-bet to 15,000 in middle position. Andrea Radicchi then four-bet to 37,000 on the button and Darie folded, but Bendinelli then five-bet to 80,000. Radicchi spent a few minutes in the tank before moving all in for 230,000, and Bendinelli snap-called.
Andrea Radicchi: A♦K♦ 
Giuliano Bendinelli: K♣K♠
Bendinelli showed down two kings, while Radicchi was left looking for an ace in a massive pot. The 6♠4♣2♠ flop was no help, but Radicchi spiked the A♠ on the turn to take the lead. The river, though, was the 10♠ and Bendinelli made a flush to win the pot and send Radicchi to the rail.
"Always a sweat," Bendinelli said.
