Pasqualini Gets Massive Double Up
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Jean-Paul Pasqualini bet 55,000 from early position and was called by Mark Kitchens in the cutoff, Matthew Shihadeh on the button, Greg Mayberry in the small blind and Timothy Bowers in the big blind.
The flop of Q♣J♣9♦ encouraged Bowers to bet 150,000. The original aggressor Pasqualini fired back with a raise of 350,000. Kitchens went into the tank before folding.
Mayberry and Shihadeh quickly folded, while Bowers announced all in which was called by Pasqualini and was at risk for 700,000.
Jean-Paul Pasqualini: J♦J♠
Timothy Bowers: A♦Q♦
Pasqualini flopped a set of jacks and was ahead of Bowers's top pair, top kicker. The 9♣ on the turn gave the Frenchman a boat and 7♥ completed the board and Pasqualini dragged in a massive pot.
