Marrone Smacks the Flop, Di Nicola Gets Off Cheap
Level 40
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Ermanno Di Nicola looked down at K♠K♦ and raised to 2,000,000 on the button. Alain Saka called in the small blind, while Angelo Marrone also came along out of the big blind with Q♥7♥.
The 4♥7♠7♦ flop gave Marrone trips and action checked to Di Nicola, who checked back his pair of kings.
The 10♦ fell on the turn and Marrone then bet 3,800,000. Di Nicola called, while Saka got rid of A♣9♦. The river came the 10♣ and Marrone slowed down and checked, while Di Nicola checked back and showed Marrone his kings before giving up the pot.
