Barbero Finds Magic Runout To Stay Alive
Livello 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Nacho Barbero opened the action to 9,000 from under the gun and it folded around to the big blind who made the call.
The flop came J♥8♦3♠ and the big blind checked to Barbero who continued for 11,000. The big blind put in a check-raise to 27,000 and Barbero took a few seconds before moving all in for 111,000 total. The big blind snap-called with a bigger stack and the cards were shown.
Nacho Barbero: A♥8♥
Opponent: A♣A♦
The big blind trapped Barbero and had him in rough shape. The turn fell the K♥ to give Barbero more hope with a flush draw to go along with his pair of eights. The river fell the 8♣ giving Barbero the lucky eight he was looking for to score the pot and massive double up just before the last level of the night.
