Pescatori Fishing for Double Up
Level 8
: 400/800, 75 ante
There was roughly 10,000 in the pot by the flop and the gentleman in the cutoff (whose name we can't ascertain owing to the awkwardness of the seating arrangements here, but we can tell you that he is the spitting image of John Duthie circa 1995) checked. On the button, Max Pescatori bet 5,000. Duthie Jr. (not really, but seriously it's a good lookalikey) now check-raised to 12,500, Pescatori went all in for 19,500 total, Baby Duthie called, and they were on their backs.
Pescatori: for top pair
Baby Duthie: for a flush draw
Turn: not a spade but the
River: - also not a spade
The Italian Pirate pillaged the pot, and doubled up to 50,000. Me hearties.
