Gaultieri Dwindling

Scott Stanko raised under the gun and received calls from Joe Gualtieri on the button and Darren Woods in the small blind. Woods checked the {K-Hearts}{9-Spades}{J-Clubs} flop, allowing Stanko to continuation bet. Gualtieri then three-bet, Woods folded, and Stanko made the call.

After the dealer had burned and turned the {7-Spades}, Stanko bet, Gualtieri called, and the {9-Diamonds} was put out on the river. Again Stanko bet and Gualtieri made the call. Stanko showed {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a flopped straight as Gualtieri shook his head and revealed {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}.

The previous hand left Gualtieri with just 14,500, but he was able to double on the very next hand after getting all in preflop against Stanko. Gualtieri held {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts} against his opponent's {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and had the board run out a kind {3-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{A-Spades}. Although he doubled, Gualtieri is still our short stack.
