Piacentino Busts Calderone
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Yves Piacentino opened to 2,500 from early position and was called by Eros Calderone in middle position.
Action folded to Felix Schlott on the button, who produced a three-bet to 8,200. After some thought, Piacentino called.
Calderone asked to see his opponents stacks, and then produced an all-in back-jam for 30,000. Schlott got out of the way but Piacentino made the quick call.
Eros Calderone: 2♥2♣ 
Yves Piacentino: J♥8♣
Calderone was ahead in a race and remained so after the 9♥5♦6♠ flop, although Piacentino had flopped a straight draw.
The A♣ turn was safe for Calderone but the 7♦ rolled off on the river to give Piacentino the nine-high straight and send Calderone packing.
