Di Nicola Leaves Saka Short
Level 42
: Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante
Ermanno Di Nicola made it 3,500,000 from the button with 10?10?. Alain Saka defended with Q?9?.
Saka check-called for 2,000,000 on the A?A?4? flop, which brought in the 8? turn. Di Nicola was still ahead with his tens, and Saka's float saw him pick up a flush draw. The 9? river paired Saka up, but he still had the second-best hand. Saka check-called a bet of 7,000,000 only to see that his hand was bested.
