Gontijo Building a Massive Stack
Level 2
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Olivio Gontijo bet 6,000 from under the gun on a flop of J♠3♦8♦ before Fabricio Nicolini raised to 19,000 in the cutoff. Gontijo called, and they both checked the J♥ turn.
The river was the Q♣ and Gontijo bet 35,000. Nicolini tanked for a minute before folding, and Gontijo slammed down 10♣9♣ for the rivered straight as he took the pot.
Gontijo has nearly quadrupled his starting stack in less than two levels so far today.
