Bendinelli Doubles Up with Kings
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player opened from middle position to 2,000, but Giuliano Bendinelli in the cutoff three-bet to 6,000. The big blind called, as well as the middle position player.
On a flop of 2♥8♠2♣ the big blind and Bendinelli agreed on a bet 5,000 while the third player folded. Then on the 4♣ turn, the big blind bet 8,500 and Bendinelli made the call.
After the big blind checked the 10♣ river, Bendinelli moved all-in for 28,000. The big blind went into the tank and called.
Giuliano Bendinelli: K♣K♠ 
Big blind: 5♥5♠
The big blind only had fives against Bendinelli's kings, so Bendinelli doubled up.
