Lopes Stays Alive
Level 18
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Leandro Zavodini raised to 150,000 on the button and Ruben Lopes called in the big blind, leaving just 20,000 behind.
Both players checked to the river on a board of A♠4♥2♥J♦3♣, when Lopes put in his last chips. Zavodini called with A♥9♥ for top pair, but Lopes had rivered a straight with 5♣4♣ to win the pot and double up.
