Palma Wins Race
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko open-raised to 10,000 from late position, and Nick Palma moved all in from the small blind for 116,000. Kirichenko quickly made the call, and players turned their cards.
Nick Palma: 10♥10♦
Aleksandr Kirichenko: A♥K♠
The board ran out 4♣J♦J♣10♣7♥ and Palma sealed the deal when he made a full house on the turn, tens full of jacks. He won the pot and doubled his stack, much to the disappointment of Kirichenko, who handed over the chips with a dismayed look on his face.
