Santa Maria Decimates Serrano on the River
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Abraham Serrano bet 15,000 from the button on a flop of 10♣9♣4♦ and Fernando Santa Maria raised to 37,000 in the cutoff. Serrano called, and the A♦ fell on the turn.
Santa Maria then bet 22,000 and Serrano again called. The river was the 6♥ and Santa Maria fired out 60,000. Serrano took a few minutes to argue with a tournament director before slamming in the chips to call.
Santa Maria turned over 6♠6♣ for a rivered set, and Serrano slammed J♣10♥ onto the table before handing over the massive pot that boosted Santa Maria up close to 300,000 near the end of the night.
