Leonard: puts Portaro on a plunge

Steve 'stevoL' Leonard has doubled up to 11,000 through Bruno Portaro after a recent hand on table 30.

Leonard made it 600 to go from early position. Dave Lee called from the small blind, Portaro called from the big blind and it was three-way action on a flop of {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{3-Hearts}

.

The blinds checked to Leonard who opened for 1,050. Lee folded, Portaro raised all in and Leonard made the call.

Leonard: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{8-Spades}

Portaro:

{A-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

Looking for a four or deuce, the turn and river bricked out {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

to send Portaro down to just 7,000 in chips - which is a far cry from the 30,000 he had several hands ago.
