Petolicchio Doubles Before Dinner
Jim Petolicchio raises to 24,000 from middle position. Play folds around to David Matthews in the big blind. He three-bets to 85,000. Petolicchio thinks for a few seconds before announcing he is all-in for 229,000. Matthews calls and the cards are tabled.
Petolicchio:
Matthews:
Petolicchio flops a king. Matthews does not get the miracle runner-runner queens to win the pot and he ships over most of his chips to Petolicchio. Petolicchio doubles up on the last hand before the dinner break while Matthews falls near the bottom of the counts.
Jim Petolicchio - 470,000 (47 BBs)
David Matthews - 140,000 (14 BBs)
