Scafini Snap-Calls for Tournament Life
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Lucas Scafini opened to 8,000 from under the gun and called when Hwany Lee made it 35,000 from the big blind.
Lee jammed as the big stack on the 10♥9♣7♣ flop and Scafini, with around 240,000 behind, snap-called.
Lucas Scafini: A♥9♥
Hwany Lee: Q♥Q♣
Scafini had connected with the board but was behind Lee's pair of queens. The 5♦ turn and Q♣ river improved Lee to a set of queens and he became one of the biggest stacks in the room.
"He [Scafini] must not have wanted to play anymore," remarked a tablemate.
