DiVella Doubles Through Pollak with a Good River

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Nick DiVella moved all in before the flop for a bit more than 400,000. Benjamin Pollak was next to act and he just called while the rest of the table folded around, bringing the two players to a showdown.

Benjamin Pollak: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Nick DiVella: {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}

The board ran out {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and that gave DiVella a winning pair of sevens on the river to double up.

"Hi, mom!" DiVella said after the hand, waving at the ESPN cameras that had gathered around.

"She says, 'Nice river,'" another player at the table said.
