Calle Has Her Opponent Dominated on Way to a Double
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
A player in the cutoff raised to 1,500 before the button three-bet to 4,600. Esperanza Calle, in the small blind, then moved all in for her last 10,400.
The cutoff folded, while the button tanked for a moment before calling.
Esperanza Calle: Q♦J♠
Opponent: J♥9♥
Calle had her opponent dominated as both players hit a pair on the 5♠J♣3♦ flop. Calle's queen-kicker remained in front on the 2♦ turn and 10♣ river and she doubled up.
"In English, her name means hope street," a tablemate joked as Calle raked in the chips.
