Cooler Flop Earns Moreira a Double
Level 10
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Paula Moreira in the small blind and Diones Lopes in the hijack saw a flop of A♣3♣Q♦, where Moreira got her last 156,000 in the middle.
Paula Moreira: 3♦3♥ 
Diones Lopes: A♦Q♠
Lopes had flopped top two pair, but Moreira had spiked a straight and was poised for the double up. Lopes needed to improve to a full house, but he missed the 8♠ turn and 8♥ river, and Moreira scooped the late-night double.
