Demasi Spikes the River For a Fortunate Double
Nivel 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Lasha Zamtaradze raised to 100,000 in early position and Simone Demasi three-bet to 450,000 in middle position, leaving around 75,000 behind. Zamtaradze called and they saw the flop come A♠10♠2♥.
Zamtaradze then put Demasi all in, and Demasi took his time until the clock was called. The countdown nearly reached zero until he put his last chips in the middle.
Simone Demasi: K♦Q♣ 
Lasha Zamtaradze: A♥J♠
Demasi was on a straight draw against Zamtaradze's top pair. The turn was the 2♠, but Demasi caught the J♥ on the river to make his straight and double up.
"Where are you going? Sit down," a tablemate said to Demasi after the hand.
"Lucky," Demasi replied.
