Cittadino Cracks Hendrix's Kings

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante
Sam Cittadino

Sam Cittadino, who won his seat to this event via a cash game promotion at Hollywood Gulf Coast Casino, raised to 1,400 from under the gun, and was called by Rhonda Hart in the cutoff, as well as the button. William Hendrix three-bet to 6,400 from the small blind, and Cittadino and Hart called, while the button folded.

Hendrix ripped his last 13,000 in on the {4-Clubs}{a-Spades}{10-Spades} flop, and Cittadino called. Hart folded, and Cittadino told Hendrix, "I just have an ace," to which Hendrix grimaced and responded, "Of course you do."

William Hendrix: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Sam Cittadino: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Hendrix couldn't find a king on the {7-Diamonds} turn or {10-Clubs} river, and he hit the rail, while Cittadino shoots to the top of the counts early on Day 1a.
