Pitzanti Doubles Up
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Sandro Pitzanti limped under the gun before Eliezer Asherof raised to 2,000 from the next seat. Ettore Ricci called from middle position, Gregory Chenet defended out of the big blind and Pitzanti called as well.
Four players saw a flop of 7♣K♥3♥ which got checked through for the 8♠ to land on the turn. Chenet led out for 2,500 and Pitzanti immediately shoved for 6,500. Asherof and Ricci folded, but Chenet flicked in the call.
Sandro Pitzanti: K♠3♠ 
Gregory Chenet: 8♣7♥
Both players had two pair but it was Pitzanti who was ahead with top and bottom pair. A clean 6♣ fell on the river and Pitzanti earned the much-needed double-up.
