Marcus Is Pist

Marcus Vretling Pistelli has just had to suffer one of those nightmarish scenarios. He raised to 24k from early position and found Filipe Monteiro pushing in for 107k behind him and it got folded back to him.

"107k right? I call." He said in a flash flipping his Aces over as Monteiro and the Portuguese on the rail groaned when he turned over Kings.

But the Poker Gods had other ideas as the flop came 3♠ K♥ T♣ and multiple yells of "Vamos!" came from the rail. Dodging Aces on the turn and river doubled up the home player and Pistelli is left nursing a 55k stack.
