Spadola Finds Big Slick for the Knockout
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
James Spadola raised to 1,600 from middle position and was called by a player on the button. Then the small blind Thomas McNicholas three-bet all in for 6,600, and after the big blind folded, Spadola made the call to put McNicholas at risk. The button folded, leaving the two players heads up.
Thomas McNicholas: A?10? 
James Spadola: A?K?
Spadola had McNicholas dominated with his ace-king, and once the board ran out K?2?9?4?7? Spadola improved to a pair of kings, to eliminate McNicholas.
