Sammartino's Big Slick Holds
Level 17
: 2,500/5,000, 1,300 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Dario Sammartino was under the gun, betting 10,000 into the pot on the 
flop. Big blind Warwick Mirzikinian check-raised to 30,000 and Sammartino shoved for 89,000. Mirzikinian snapped him off and Sammartino's face indicated troubles.
But he was in a better position than he initially thought as his 
was ahead of Mirzikinian's 
.
Sammartino still had to fade clubs on two streets to score the double and he did so on the 
turn and 
river.
