Del Piero Playing With Fire

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

On a rather innocent flop {K-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs} with around 5,000 in the main pot, the fireworks started and Enzo Del Piero somehow managed to get into a raising war with table neighbor Maximos Pertsinidis. The latter eventually called all in for 47,250 with top pair and top kicker, Del Piero had a straight draw.

Pertsinidis: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
Del Piero: {5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

The {K-Hearts} turn and {A-Hearts} river gave the Greek a full house and Del Piero's roller coaster ride on Day 1a sent him back below starting stack.
