Di Nicola Turns a Better Pair
Niveau 41
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Ermanno Di Nicola looked down at K♥10♠ and raised to 1,600,000, and Alain Saka defended his big blind with 6♣4♣.
Saka flopped best as he paired up on the 5♠4♥2♥ flop. Action checked through to the 10♦ turn, which put Di Nicola in the lead. Saka led out for 2,500,000 and was called.
The 8♦ river saw Di Nicola have the best hand. Saka bet 2,500,000 but then saw Di Nicola raise to 10,000,000. Saka mulled over his options for several moments but ultimately called to see the bad news.
