Nivel 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Arriving on the turn of 2♥4♥J♥7♦ in a blind-on-blind battle between Alessandro Orsi and Fabrizio Ortolomo, Orsi bet 125,000 into the pot of 200,000 and received a call from Ortolomo.
The river fell the K♣ and saw Orsi check to Ortolomo. Ortolomo then pushed all in for an overbet of 660,000 chips.
Orsi spent some time in the tank before eventually flicking in a singular chip to signify a call.
Ortolomo showed K♥8♣ for top pair, beating the 8♥7♠ of Orsi, who had called with third pair.
Ortolomo was awarded the massive pot and ended up with two and a half time the average stack.
