Casella Gets Paid
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Action folded to Marc Fiorenti who raised to 8,000 from middle position, and was called by Michael Casella on the button.
Both players checked to the turn after the K♦9♠J♠ flop, which brought the 4♣. Fiorenti then check-called a bet of 15,000 from Casella.
The river was the 9♥ and Fiorenti checked to Casella again, who fired out 30,000 this time. After debating his decision for nearly a minute, Fiorenti made the call. Casella tabled A♣9♣ for trip nines to take the pot, as Fiorenti seemed shocked, and said "wow" as he tossed his cards in the muck.
