Rosa Hits Running Cards to Triple Up
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Giuseppe Rosa shoved under the gun for around 150,000. Mariusz Golinski called on the button before Simone Andrian shoved for around 400,000 from the big blind. Golinski snap-called to put both players at risk.
Giuseppe Rosa: A♠Q♠ 
Simone Andrian : 8♥8♣
Mariusz Golinski: K♣K♦
The flop of A♣8♦3♥ did pair Rosa's ace, but Andrian had flopped a set to take a commanding lead. The Q♣ on the turn improved Rosa to two pair meaning he could win with an ace or a queen on the river. The A♥ came on the river to give Rosa the nuts with a boat, aces full of queens and he tripled up. Andrian cracked Golinski's kings so he would end the hand on basically the same stack he started on.
