Louie Calvo Leaves Eric Hicks With Crumbs
Louie Calvo raised to 150,000 from under the gun, Eric Hicks called from the button, and Rudolph Sawa called from the big blind.
The flop came and action checked to Hicks who bet 200,000. Sawa folded and Calvo check-raised to 1,075,000, putting Hicks to a decision for the vast majority of his stack. Hicks called and the two players tabled their hands.

Calvo had the lead with the better ace and Hicks needed to improve in order to win the pot. The on the turn changed nothing and neither did the river, so Calvo took the pot to double up and leave Hicks with just 125,000 chips.
