Villella Spinning Up

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Joseph Villella began the day with a short stack of 30,000 but has had a big spin-up to start the day. He was spotted all in with the {a-Spades}{q-Spades} against the {k-Hearts}{k-Spades} of Abraham Korotki and the {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts} of John Machen.

Korotki had the biggest stack and was looking for a double knockout but the flop came down {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} to launch Villella into the lead. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and the river came the {4-} as Villella pumped his fist as his stack is now very healthy.
