D'Alterio Makes the Right Call
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Luigi D'Alterio raised to 3,000 from under the gun, then called when Joaquin Subirada three-bet to 7,500 in the hijack.
Both players checked the J♦J♠9♠ flop and D'Alterio also checked the 6♦ turn. Subirada bet out 4,500 and D'Alterio called.
The river came the A♠ and Subirada shoved all in for 22,000. D'Alterio picked up some of his chips and began twirling them between his fingers as he tanked for nearly three minutes before calling.
Subirada tossed his K♠Q♣ into the middle of the table and got up from his seat as D'Alterio showed A♦9♦ to send him to the rail.
