Traniello Almost Mucks Best Hand

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Dennis Bejedal raised to 500 from UTG+1 and Martins Adeniya called to his direct left. Marco Traniello to his immediate left called, as did Yury Gully on the button and the big blind.

Flop: {3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} - The big blind checked, Bejedal continued with a bet of 1,600, which folded out Adeniya, Gulyy and the big blind, leaving Bejedal and Traniello heads up.

Turn: {J-Clubs} - Bejedal saw no reason to slow down and he made it 3,800 to play and Traniello quickly called.

River: {J-Diamonds} - Now Bejedal checked and Traniello checked behind.

Traniello shaped to put him hand in the muck but when he saw his opponent turn over {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts} he tabled {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and took down the substantial pot.

Andy Frankenberger looked puzzled and said, "I was trying to figure out how so many chips got into the pot," and Praz Bansi wittingly answered, "well it is No Limit Hold'em."
