Di Nicola Wins the Battle of Small Pairs Against Ufano
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ermanno Di Nicola raised to 16,000 in the cutoff before Jorge Ufano moved all in for 122,000 on the button. Di Nicola used a time bank and took a minute until eventually calling to put Ufano at risk.
Jorge Ufano: 3♥3♣ 
Ermanno Di Nicola: 5♦5♣
Ufano let out a loud sigh when he found out his pair was crushed by Di Nicola's fives. The 10♠10♦5♠ flop improved Di Nicola to a full house, and Ufano was sent to the rail after the A♥ and K♥ completed the board.
