On the turn with the board reading 10d7s2cQh, the small blind gets all in for about 40,000 against Dave Battaglia in the hijack.

“You flop a set?” asked the small blind as he committed the last of his chips.

Battaglia tabled 10h7h, giving him two pair and the small blind shows Jx9x, giving him an open-ended straight draw. The river was the 4h and Battaglia  drags the pot and contends for the chip lead with one more level to play.

Dave Battaglia – 257,000
