Ruggeri Survives

Kai Cocklin

Level 37 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Mario Colavita raised from the button to 1,500,000 and Umberto Ruggeri shoved 2,400,000 from the big blind. Colavita called.

Umberto Ruggeri: J?9? All in
Mario Colavita: A?J?

Ruggeri was in a sticky situation, but did pick up some more equity on the 6?5?5? flop as he gained a flush draw. A 7? on the turn completed his flush, but Colavita did have a redraw to a bigger flush. However, the 7? wasn't a club, and Ruggeri doubled up.

Level 37 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Umberto Ruggeri raised to 1,300,000 from the hijack and Mihai Niste shoved 7,900,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Ruggeri, he called with a covering stack.

Mihai Niste: 10?10? All in
Umberto Ruggeri: A?K?

Niste was flipping for his tournament life and got off to a good start as he made a set on the A?Q?10? flop, Ruggeri paired his ace, but it was a jack that he was looking for as that would complete Broadway. However, the Q? turn gave Niste a boat, which meant Ruggeri needed an ace or a queen on the river.

Niste breathed a sigh of relief when the 5? dropped on the river, which meant he doubled and Ruggeri was left short.

Level 37 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

The action folded around to Mario Colavita in the small blind, who limped in. Muhtar Taysi checked his option from the big blind.

On the 7?4?J? flop, Colavita bet 600,000, and Taysi called to see the K? turn, where Colavita check-called a bet of 1,100,000 from Taysi.

A 10? completed the board and after Colavita checked, Taysi bet 1,700,000. Colavita mulled it over for a while, but eventually settled on a call.

Taysi then showed two pair with J?10?, and Colavita mucked.

Level 37 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Mario Colavita raised to 1,100,000 from the cutoff and Renars Skanis shoved for around 1,500,000 from the big blind. Colavita called.

Renars Skanis: J?9? All in
Mario Colavita: A?7?

Skanis had lost a big pot earlier with the same hand, and this time it would be his last as the 5?A?6?K?7? runout left him drawing dead on the turn.

Kai Cocklin

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

The action folded around to Umberto Ruggeri in the small blind, who shoved for 4,125,000. Renars Skanis was in the big blind and had a decision to make.

"It's close," remarked Skanis. Eventually Skanis did flick in the call.

Umberto Ruggeri: K?4? All in
Renars Skanis: J?9?

Ruggeri was ahead with his king-high, and maintained his lead through the K?J?6? flop, where both players made a pair.

Neither the A? turn nor 7? river could help Skanis, which meant Ruggeri doubled up. Skanis down to around four big blinds!

Quinn then flipped J?9? for just jack-high, and Taysi took both the main and side pots with a full house holding A?8?.
