Minieri Doubles Through Kelly
Level 19
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Dario Minieri raised under the gun, and Steven Kelly defended his big blind.
Kelly checked a 
flop, and Minieri came out with 20,000. Kelly popped it to 44,000. Minieri put 24,000 in his hand and reached out as if to call, but announced "raise" just as he dropped the chips. He moved 50,000 more into the middle. Kelly thought for a minute, rechecked his cards, then announced "pot." Minieri called off.
"You have a set?" Minieri asked. Kelly shook his head. "I have an overpair, it's good?"
Minieri tabled 
, and his overpair was indeed good against Kelly's 
. Bricks fell on the turn and river, and Minieri dragged a large pot.
