More for Mario

Mario Silvestri opened to 675 from under the gun. A player on his direct left three-bet to 1,700, and the action folded back to Silvestri. He examined his opponent's stack, then put in a four-bet to 4,100.

The player grimaced, then moved all in for around 11,000 or so. Silvestri immediately called.

Silvestri: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

"Look at these wizards stacking off with ace-ten," Justin Kruger said away from the table.

The dealer fanned {4-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, giving Silvestri's opponent a flush draw.

"Ace," Kruger said.

The turn wasn't an ace or a diamond, but it was the {10-Hearts}, giving the player even more outs to catch up.

Unfortunately for the gentleman, the {3-Clubs} on the river was a big fat brick and he was eliminated. Silvestri now has around 60,000 chips.

"I ain't gunna lie," Kruger said, sitting back down at his seat. "I was rooting for him."

Silvestri could only laugh.
