Lococo Gets Value-Owned
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Nolan Curatolo opened to 1,100 in early position and Alejandro Lococo flat-called from the hijack. Axel Hallay three-bet to 5,200 from the small blind and both opponents called.
The flop landed 
and Hallay continued for a small 2,500. Curatolo called and Lococo raised to 7,500. Hallay folded and Curatolo called.
Curatolo checked on the 
turn and Lococo instantly checked back. Curatolo checked again on the 
river and Lococo moved all in. Curatolo went in the tank and eventually called off for 28,100.
Lococo tabled 
for a pair of aces, but it was no good against the full house of Curatolo with 
.
"I was going for value," Lococo said as he was left with crumbs.
