Michael Gentili Keeps Climbing
Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Gentili started the day with 688,000 but dropped down to less than half of that. After winning an all in with ace-king vs the ace-ten of Scott Stewart, Gentili clawed his way back and is now in the thick of things again.
On a board reading 
, with about 200,000 in the middle already, Pedro Cabeca led out for 125,000. Gentili was in the cutoff and three-bet to 260,000. Cabeca thought about it for a moment and eventually called.
Gentili quickly tabled 
for the nut straight and Cabeca mucked his cards.
Gentili now has just shy of a million chips.
