“Good Thing I Folded”

Level 7: 500/1,000 (1,000)
Entries: 225/303

Giuseppe Marrone bet 2,000 into a pot of more than triple that after the 10♠2♦Q♠ appeared on the flop. Mathias Scharbatke called before Humberto Lopes Galindo jammed for 49,700. Marrone rejammed for much more and Scharbatke got out of the way.

Humberto Lopes Galindo: Q♥J♥
Giuseppe Marrone: A♥K♠

Galindo was ahead but he had a sweat with his opponent’s card both live and a jack improving him to Broadway. Marrone got nowhere on either the 10♣ turn or the [pcn3h[/pcn] river and he doubled up Marrone.

“I also had ace-king,” Scharbatke said after the hand. “Good thing I folded.”

Humberto Lopes Galindo – 120,000
Mathias Scharbatke – 75,000
Giuseppe Marrone – 60,000
