Rocco Hits the Turn, Tocci Spikes the River
Level 30
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Michele Tocci raised to 550,000 under the gun with Q♣J♠ and Michael Rocco three-bet A♦5♦ to 800,000 in early position.
Tocci called as the Q♠6♠2♠ flop gave him top pair and a flush draw. He checked over to Rocco, who continued with a bet of 375,000.
Tocci called, but the A♣ turn gave Rocco a pair of aces and he bet 1,000,000. Tocci stuck around to see the J♥ river, which improved him to two pair.
Both players checked and Rocco could only shake his head upon seeing Tocci's cards.
