Oops Again

Tom Marchese
Tom Marchese
We had another "oops" moment at our final table. This one came courtesy of Daniel Clemente.

In a battle of the blinds, Tom Marchese opened with a raise to 390,000 that Clemente called. Marchese continued his story by betting 475,000 on a flop of {K-Spades} {10-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}. Clemente called again.

The turn fell {K-Hearts}. Marchese bet 825,000, then snap-called after the larger-stacked Clemente moved all in. It was so bad, in fact, that after the reveal Clemente was only drawing to a chop.

Clemente: {Q-Spades} {9-Spades}
Marchese: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}

If one of the two remaining kings fell on the river, the players would chop. Otherwise the pot was going to Marchese. He stood to await a harmless river, the {7-Clubs}.

It's a huge double-up for Marchese. Clemente is now the new short stack with about 2 million chips.
