Zarbo Spikes the Flop on Rocco
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Rocco had three-bet to 24,000 on the button before Giuseppe Zarbo, in the hijack, moved all in for around 150,000. Rocco called to put him at risk.
Giuseppe Zarbo: Q?Q?
Michael Rocco: K?K?
Zarbo was crushed by Rocco's kings until the flop brought 4?Q?J?, shooting Zarbo into the lead with a set. Rocco picked up a straight draw on the 9? turn, but the 5? river was safe for Zarbo.
"Yes," he yelled out after securing the massive double up.
"I don't want to pay that," Rocco said with a laugh as the dealer began counting out his chips to hand over to Zarbo. "Nice hand, sir," he told Zarbo.
