Leonzio's Mistake Costs Him Dear
Dmitry Gromov opened preflop to 28,000 from UTG and Konsta Vesterinen 3-bet two seats down to 63,000. Marco Leonzio called but hadn't actually seen the 3-bet, he had only been planning to call the Russian's open but now found himself cold-calling the 3-bet out of position.
Gromov now also called to see a flop which was checked to Vesterinen who bet 76,000. Leonzio now check-raised all-in and Gromov quickly called.
"Call, call, yes call," said Vesterinen quickly turning over and Leonzio now was crestfallen, turning over for the underset.
"No six!" pleaded Vesterinen as though the case six was ready to strike but the came on the turn, "No six, no heart!" as the begging grew stronger. The river was the and Vesterinen doubled up to 700,000 while Leonzio dropped to 570,000.
"I'm sorry," said the winner, though probably not too sorry.
