Da Silva Gets Value on River
Level 7
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Giorgio Da Silva opened to 5,500 from under the gun, which Jose Mota called in the small blind.
The dealer spread a K♦K♥9♦ flop, which saw Mota waste no time in check-calling a bet of 2,500 from Da Silva.
On the 4♠ turn, Da Silva once again showed no hesitation, immediately calling a second bet of 15,000.
When the river 3♠ completed the board, and Mota checked for a third time, Da Silva put 50,000 into the middle, leaving himself just 7,500 behind.
Mota wasn't so quick to act this time, using two time extensions before ultimately choosing to call.
It was bad news for Mota, who mucked his cards when Da Silva rolled over K♠Q♣ for trips.
