Palumbo Runs Into Barone’s Cowboys
Level 7: 1,000/1,500 (1,500)
Entries: 239/396
Antonio Palumbo opened for 4,500 from middle position before Claudio Barone three-bet to 13,000 from a couple of seats over. Palumbo four-bet shoved for around 35,000 and Barone snap-called putting his opponent at risk.
Claudio Barone: K♣Q♥
Antonio Palumbo: K♦K♠
Palumbo began getting out of his chair after the 4♥8♥7♠ but was still halfway in his seat when some thin hope came for a miracle on the Q♠. It’s called a miracle for a reason and no two outer came on the 5♥ river for Palumbo to hit the felt.
Claudio Barone – 180,000
Antonio Palumbo – 0
