Heart Not Good Enough For Portaro

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

With a raise in front, the player on the button moved his remaining 4,525 into the pot. Bruno Portaro was in the small blind and he made the call, while the initial bettor also came along to play.

The flop turned over {3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and the allin player watched on as Bruno Portaro led out for 8,000. The other opponent in the pot would open fold {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and it would be just Portaro putting the other player in danger.

Portaro: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

By the time the {2-Spades} rolled off on the turn, the folded tens would have been in front but when the {2-Hearts} came on the river it was a double-up for one player while Portaro takes a small hit to his stack.
