Menga Manages to Quadruple, Speranzoni Takes Side Pot
Level 36
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Antonio Menga was automatically all-in in the big blind. Georg Strebel then limped in from middle position before Alberto Speranzoni shoved for 2,800,000 in the cutoff.
Viorel Gavrila rejammed on the button with the covering stack, forcing out Strebel and creating a three-way all-in.
Antonio Menga: A♣J♥ 
Alberto Speranzoni: 7♠7♦
Viorel Gavrila: A♠Q♠
The 6♣9♥5♣ flop saw Speranzoni remain ahead, but the J♦ turn made Menga top pair to take a big lead.
The 9♦ river paired the board, quadrupling up Menga and seeing the big side pot being shipped to Speranzoni.
