Sammartino Leads the River
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Dario Sammartino raised to 1,800 from middle position and received calls from button Piotr Sztenkiel and Selahaddin Bedir in the big blind.
The flop came 7♦9♣4♥ and Bedir and Sammartino both checked to Sztenkiel, who tossed out a bet of 3,500. Only Sammartino called.
Both players checked the 2♣ turn before the 3♣ fell on the river. Sammartino then led out for 3,000 and Sztenkiel quickly sent his cards into the muck.
