Cowboys Good to Christian Abele

This hand occured just before the break. A middle-position player raised to 4,500. Dario Minieri called from middle position as did another player in late position. Sorel Mizzi, with the button, put in a re-raise to 20,500. Christian Abele in the small blind wasted little time moving his entire stack of 180,000 towards the center. The initial raiser called and the other players folded. Mizzi claimed to have folded A-K as his fold closed the action. The players showed...

Abele: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

Abele was in a bit of trouble. That is until the board filled out {5-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{K-Spades}{2-Spades}. Abele spiked a set on the turn to win the pot and increase his stack to 275,000.
