Lopes Scores a Huge Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Pedro Lopes raised to 35,000 from the button before Mathias Duarte made it 130,000 from the big blind. Lopes called and the flop was A♦4♣9♠.
Duarte fired 80,000 and Lopes called. The turn was K♠ and Duarte continued for 130,000. Lopes called again and the river was 6♦.
Duarte shoved the river and Lopes spread out his time banks to contemplate his last 1,040,000. After a few moments of thought, Lopes slammed down a small stack of chips to call and turned over K♥4♥ for a pair of kings. Duarte showed 9♦8♣ for a pair of nines and Lopes took the huge pot.
Elsewhere, Alejandro Arnold and Frank Lagodich have been eliminated from the tournament.
