Saka Decimates Gallo
Level 36
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Gianluca Gallo raised to 800,000 in the hijack and Alain Saka called on the button, as did big blind Xhavit Berisha.
The flop came 8?Q?7? and Gallo continued for 725,000. Only Saka called to see the 5? turn.
Gallo then checked and Saka fired out 1,200,000. Gallo tanked for several minutes until calling as the 3? fell on the river.
Gallo checked again and Saka bet 3,000,000 this time. Gallo once more took a few minutes before sliding in a call holding A?Q? for top pair. Saka, though, turned over A?10? for the nut flush to win the massive pot.
