Freitez Calls to Victory

Level 31 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Brinkmann gave it a shot with a preflop raise with {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs} on the button, which little did he know was crushing caller Freitez who held {6-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. The flop brought {J-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Freitez simply led the flop and took the pot.

Next Brinkmann button, he tried again with {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} (320,000), called by big blind Freitez holding {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Both players checked the {8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop, but when Freitez checked the {K-Clubs} turn, Brinkmann bet 370,000. Freitez called.

The river was the {5-Diamonds}. Check to Brinkmann one more time. He bet 680,000, and again, Freitez made the call! He was, of course, good, and was already a hero to his rail.
