Kaukua Doubles Off Di Nicola
Level 1
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
A player on the button raised to 1,500 and Ermanno Di Nicola called in the small blind. Toni Kaukua then three-bet to 7,300 in the big blind and only Di Nicola called.
The flop was 2♦Q♦3♦ and Kaukua continued for 4,000. Di Nicola called and the A♠ fell on the turn.
Kaukua then bet 16,000 and Di Nicola called to see the K♥ river. Di Nicola checked and Kaukua announced he was all in for 83,000.
Di Nicola asked for a count and tanked for several minutes before flicking in a chip to signify a call. Kaukua showed J♠10♠ for a rivered straight and Di Nicola went to muck his cards before being forced to show A♥3♥ as he handed over most of his stack in the first level of the day.
