O'Neill Catches Ruggeri
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Umberto Ruggeri called from the small blind with 4?2? and Padraig O'Neill checked his option from the big blind with 8?7?.
Both players checked on the 8?Q?10? flop and then Ruggeri led out for 300,000 after the 5? fell on the turn. O'Neill called with his pair of eights.
The Q? completed the board and Ruggeri kept his foot on the gas for a hefty 845,000 bet. O'Neill burned up a time extension as he contemplated his decision, but eventually decided to call.
Ruggeri tabled his bluff and O'Neill dragged the pot.
