Petrangelo Doubles Up Then Loses Next Hand

Matt Warburton

Level 5 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action was on the river on a board of 6?3?5?Q?2? with around 150,000 already in the pot. Nicholas Petrangelo shoved the river for his remaining 60,000 and Orpen Kisacikoglu made the call. Players revealed their cards, with Petrangelo at risk.

Nicholas Petrangelo: A?4?
Orpen Kisacikoglu: Q?9x

Kisacikoglu had a pair of queens. Petrangelo had been playing a flush and straight draw combo and had made his straight on the river to give him the double up.

However, the very next hand, Mikita Badziakouski raised from late position and Petrangelo reraised all in from the small blind. Badziakouski made the call.

Nicholas Petrangelo: 10?10?
Mikita Badziakouski: J?J?

The board ran out 3?J?4?A?8?. Badziakouski made a set of jacks on the flop and doubled up. Petrangelo's stack was once again reduced to fewer than 100,000 chips.
