Paduano Holds With Top Pair to Move Up the Leaderboard
Level 11
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Daewoong Song raised from early position and Arturo Paduano three-bet to 7,500 from the hijack. When it folded back to Song he four-bet to 30,000. Paduano thought briefly before making the call.
Song continued with a bet of 7,500 on the Q♦9♦7♥ flop and after doing some inventory, Paduano shoved for the rest of Song's remaining stack. Song called.
Daewoong Song: A♦8♦ 
Arturo Paduano: K♣Q♣
Paduano had top pair, but Song still had the nut flush draw. The 3♠ turn followed by the 10♣ river didn't help Song, and Pafuano had virtually doubled up to become one of the biggest stacks in the room.
