A French Battle
Level 17
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ugo Faggioli raised to 13,000 from mid-position and Pierre Chiarelli shoved from the button. The blinds folded so action was back on Faggioli who asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Chiarelli had 154,000 behind. Faggioli took a few seconds to contemplate his options and then made the call with the bigger stack.
Pierre Chiarelli: 
Ugo Faggioli: 
The flop came 
to give Chiarelli the pair of aces to stay alive.
The turn was the 
to now give Faggioli the upper hand and leave Chiarelli drawing dead. Chiarelli responded by slamming the table while the dealer dealt the 
on the river to complete the board. Faggioli quietly stacked up his chips while Chiarelli made his way to the payout desk.
