Venneri Nearly Triples up; Barbero Busts in Three-Way Clash
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Christopher Dowling opened to 1,200 from the cutoff and was called by Antonino Venneri on the button and Nacho Barbero in the big blind.
Action checked to Venneri on the 6?A?9? flop and he bet 3,000. Barbero then shoved for his last 8,700 and Dowling called cold. Venneri also went all in for around 15,000 and Dowling called having both players covered.
Nacho Barbero: A?5?
Antonino Venneri: K?10?
Christopher Dowling: A?K?
Dowling held the lead with Big Slick and maintained it on the 9? turn; however, the 4? river gave Venneri a winning flush for the triple up and elimination of Barbero.
