Diano Pulls Huge Bluff; Pescatori Out
In one of the last hands before break, Steve Diano, Adam Szalay and Stuart Rutter all made it to seventh street in a large pot. Szalay, who had taken the lead on an earlier street and bet a jack-high board against Rutter's queen-high and Diano's , checked the end. Diano pondered briefly, counting his chips, before firing out a bet, leaving himself less than a big bet remaining. Rutter folded without much thought and Szalay went into the tank.
"You have a wheel?" he asked Diano.
"I'll show you," Diano offered.
Szalay agonized over the decision for a few minutes, rubbing his head and apologizing to his tablemates. "You'll show if I fold?" he finally asked.
"I already said I would show," Diano responded. Szalay folded.
"Aces full," Diano said, turning over . "Now that's how you play Razz."
Meanwhile, Max Pescatori busted out at one of the other tables in a hand we didn't catch. He finished 22nd.
