Piacentino Takes Out Xanthopoulos, Marquez Gets Away
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Ana Marquez bet 4,000 from the big blind on a board of 9?J?8?10? and Yves Piacentino raised to 10,500 on the button.
Christos Xanthopoulos then moved all in for 32,000 in the small blind and Marquez folded, while Piacentino called.
Xanthopoulos had Q?J? for a straight, but Piacentino had K?Q? for the nut straight. The river was the 10? and Xanthopoulos was sent to the rail.
"He saved me," Marquez told Piacentino after the hand.
