Oliveira Among Chip Leaders After Massive Cooler
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
With the board reading J♥7♦6♦ and over 200,000 chips already in the middle, Michael Mitrione found himself all in and at risk against Wender Cezar Oliveira.
Michael Mitrione: 8♦9♦
Wendar Cezar Oliveira: J♦J♠
Oliveira had flopped top set for the nuts but Mitrione had a massive draw, having both a flush draw and open-ended straight draw. Despite having the nuts Oliveira was close to flipping for the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
The board ran out 2♣K♣. Oliveira faded Mitrione's plethora of outs to send him to the rail and take down what was potentially the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
