A Clash of the Big Stacks

Matt Hansen

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Pedro Lopes opened and then called when Santiago Plante raised to 175,000. The flop was 8♥Q♥6♣.

Lopes check-called what looked like a 175,000 bet from Plante and the turn was 10♥. Both players checked the turn to see 2♠ on the river.

Lopes fired 480,000 and Plante got away from it without much hesitation.

Elsewhere in the room, Alexandru Brumaru has been eliminated.
