Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
James Slavia opened 6,500 in early position and Renji Mao jammed for about 39,000. Giorgio Marletta was on the button and called off his stack of 29,500, and Slavia tank-folded.
Giorgio Marletta: A?A? 
Renji Mao: A?Q?
Mao ran into the goods and couldn't pull ahead as the dealer ran out the 8?6?6?3?8? board.
