Pagano's Five Kicker Does the Trick
Lukas Staehelin limped from early position only to have Luca Pagano raise to 800 from the button. Szabolcs Mayer then came in with a three-bet to 2,200 from the big blind, Staehelin folded, and Pagano made the call. The flop saw Pagano call a bet of 2,200 from Mayer, and the both players checked the turn as well as the river.
Mayer tabled for a pair off aces, but it'd be no good as Pagano's won with a better kicker.
