Jattin Chips Up Through Delfoco Before Dinner
Barny Boatman got away with a steal when he three-bet an Eric Afriat raise, holding just the 9♦5♦.
Francesco Delfoco limped the small blind with the A♣5♠ and Cesar Garcia jammed for 895,000 with the K♦9♣. The Italian stared down his neighbor and folded.
One hand later, Delfoco raised the button to 85,000 with the J♣9♥. Farid Jattin was in the big blind with the A♠3♦ and came along. The A♥8♠6♥ was all Jattin and he checked his top pair. Delfoco continued for 95,000 into 230,000 and Jattin called.
They headed to the 4♥ turn on which Delfoco picked up a flush draw. Delfoco fired another 275,000 and Jattin called once more.
The river brought the 9♣ on which Delfoco made an inferior pair only. They checked it down and Jattin earned a boost to his stack right before the dinner break.
