As we arrived, Dario Sammartino had all of his chips in the middle already and the black and red all in triangle was present as well. Sammartino, seated in the big blind, had fired his chips in the pot with the board reading 
. His opponent was Israeli Ori Miller on the button.
Steven van Zadelhoff told us that Sammartino had three bet before the flop and Miller had called. Sammartino then fired on the flop and turn, and shoved all in on the river.
Miller thought long and hard and still had 13,375 behind. He eventually did call.
Sammartino frowned, kind of wanted to muck, but was forced to show his 
. Miller tabled 
and took it down. The 'ooohs' and 'aaahs' after the call from the table could be heard in the entire room.
Sammartino was left with just ten big blinds, and lost those not much later. Sammartino won the Global Poker Masters World Cup with his team last night, but came up empty handed here in the Main Event.
