Italian Warfare

On a flop of {Q-Hearts} {3-Spades} {9-Clubs}, Luca Pagano led out into a three-way pot with a near-pot-sized bet of 1,500. The monkey in the middle folded, but his fellow-Italian, Marco Della Tommasina, made the quick call.

The turn brought the {6-Hearts} and a check from both players, and the {5-Hearts} completed the board. Pagano fired out 3,100, and Della Tommasina quickly called again. Pagano instantly mucked his cards, and the pot goes to his countryman.

Pagano is back down around 40,000 after that little slip.
