It's Not All Cherries for Barbieri

Even Al "Sugar Bear" Barbieri loses pots. He completed the {8-Hearts} into Mike Rocco, who brought it in with the {3-Clubs}. Rocco called and made an open pair of 3s on fourth street. Barbieri, who caught the {5-Spades}, called Rocco's bet. By sixth street, Rocco had made open trip 3s, causing Barbieri to quickly muck his hand.

Rocco didn't hold onto those chips for long. Just two hands later he went all the way to the river with Levon Torosyan, only to fold to Torosyan's river bet. Torosyan had an open pair of aces on his board against Rocco's open pair of threes.
