Frankie Gets Eliminated
PostedJust nowby Life of Poker - Oli
Frank Cucchiara opened from the cutoff for 2,800 and faced a raise to 7,500 from Hsiang Chia Ko on the button. Frank called, and the flop came down 7♦ 5♦ 2♣. A check from Frank led to a 5,500 bet from Ko, which was called.
On the 5♣ turn, Frank checked again, and Ko fired 9,000. This time, Cucchiara check-raised all-in for 20,000, and Ko quickly called. The river brought the 8♦, and Ko's K♥ K♠ held up against Frankie's A♣ J♣, sending Cucchiara to the rail.
