Ragone Floats to Victory
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Antonio Sciacca opened A♠9♦ to 40,000 in early position. Filippo Ragone flat-called K♦Q♣ in the hijack, and the two went to a flop 8♦3♥J♣. Sciacca continued for 35,000, and Ragone added some calling chips to the pot.
Sciacca then checked the J♠ turn, seeing Ragone put in a bet of 110,000, around half the size of the pot. Sciacca weighed his options for a bit, but ultimately folded the best hand near the end of his 30-second shot clock.
