Uhara Saved on the River
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
The action was four ways to the flop of 5♦J♥8♦, but as Sergio Brignoli put in a bet of 1,900 from under the gun, the cutoff and button both folded leaving Motokatsu Uhara in the big blind, who called.
The 2♠ hit the turn and Uhara opted to slow down with a check. Brignoli made it 2,700, before Uhara reraised to 12,500 with around 11,500 left in his stack. The Italian called.
Uhara confidently shoved his remaining chips all in on the 10♥ river and Brignoli called.
Motokatsu Uhara: J♠10♠
Sergio Brignoli: Q♦J♠
Uhara caught up on the river, showing two pair to double his stack.
