Niste Wins a Big Flip Against Ruggeri
Nível 37
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Umberto Ruggeri raised to 1,300,000 from the hijack and Mihai Niste shoved 7,900,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Ruggeri, he called with a covering stack.
Mihai Niste: 10♠10♥ 
Umberto Ruggeri: A♠K♥
Niste was flipping for his tournament life and got off to a good start as he made a set on the A♥Q♥10♦ flop, Ruggeri paired his ace, but it was a jack that he was looking for as that would complete Broadway. However, the Q♦ turn gave Niste a boat, which meant Ruggeri needed an ace or a queen on the river.
Niste breathed a sigh of relief when the 5♦ dropped on the river, which meant he doubled and Ruggeri was left short.
