Francesco Cortorillo raised to 5,500 from mid-position and was called by Clint Sammut in the cutoff. Ronald Haverkamp shoved all in from the big blind and Cortorillo asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Haverkamp had 16,200 behind. Cortorillo grabbed his bet back and decided to four-bet to 35,000. Sammut took a few seconds before announcing he was also all-in. Cortorillo asked for a count and the dealer confirmed Sammut had 84,900 in total. Cortorillo took some time before deciding to give his hand up.

"You have pocket sixes?" Sammut asked Haverkamp.

"Off course!" Haverkamp replied before flipping over {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} indeed.

Sammut jumped up from his seat "I don't even care if I lose this now, I put you on sixes and I was right!"

Sammut himself held {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

"I had fives," Cortorillo said with relief showing all over his face.

Some of the other players of the other tables came over to see what was happening on this table as the dealer ran out the {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{a-Spades} on the flop.

"Split pot," Sammut said.

The turn was the {q-Diamonds} which didn't change the situation as Sammut was still ahead.

The river completed the board with the {3-Hearts} and Haverkamp and Sammut wished each other good luck as Haverkamp left the table.
