Battle of the Scarves

The winning scarf
The winning scarf
After a day of mostly folding, Francesco Cirianni burst into life and pushed all in over the top of Salvatore Bonavena's opening raise of 68,000. It was 246,000 more to call.

"He must have a hand," screamed the commentary team, but their views were wayward as Bonavena made the call with {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} only to see his fellow countryman turn over {J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

"Wow," was the general response.

As turquoise took on brown in the battle of the scarves, it was the latter who triumphed as the board came {5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} to see Cirianni enjoy a pre-dinner break double through.

"Fortune favours the bulk," concluded the Nick Wetherall in the commentary booth.
