| Daniele Nucci (Harwood, MD) |
In no-limit tournament poker, it only takes one hand to change a player's course, something that Daniele Nucci (Harwood, MD) experienced during Level 15. Nucci would open UTG to 6,000, with Alex Nguyen three-betting to 17,000. After one fold, Marcus Stein flatted the 17,000, with action back on Nucci. Daniele took little time before shoving for just over 70,000, which was followed by a fold from Nguyen, and a tank from Stein. Marcus made his decision after about two minutes, and once he did make the call, the cards were tabled:
Nucci: A♠ 10♣
Stein: A♣ K♠
Runout: 10♥ 9♦ 2♠ 3♣ 8♠
Nucci, who was in pretty rough shape when the cards were table, out flopped Stein to win the hand and double to over 170,000. Daniele continued that winning trend for the remainder of the level, and now sits with just under 300,000.
