Pitta Smacks the River to Stun Streltsov
Level 14
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Claudio Pitta raised to 50,000 under the gun and Ilia Streltsov called in the hijack.
The flop came J?10?6? and Pitta bet 25,000. Streltsov then raised to 100,000, Pitta moved all in, and Streltsov called for 410,000.
Ilia Streltsov: J?J? 
Claudio Pitta: K?K?
Streltsov had outflopped Pitta's kings with top set as the Q? turn gave Pitta some outs to a straight. The river was the A? and Pitta completed his straight as he shot out of his seat, while a stunned Streltsov stood by the table as the dealer counted out the stacks before making his exit a few spots short of the money.
