Battisti Battered

Alfio Battisti raised from late position, and Giampiero Tanzi three-bet shoved for 45,900. Battisti -- known as "aLFiosNob" around these parts -- called off more than half his stack, turning up {K-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}. Tanzi was working with {A-Spades} {Q-Spades}, ahead but only barely.

The {7-Spades} {9-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} flop was a crusher for the at-risk player, and the turn {6-Hearts} changed nothing. Tanzi was able to re-suck on the river, though, and the {Q-Hearts} drew a fist pump and a loud, "Si!"

Battisti is down to about 40,000 now, while Tanzi doubles up to the century mark, near as makes any difference.
