Pardo Cracks Cowboys
Level 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Juan Pardo opened to 90,000 from the cutoff and Quan Zhou three-bet to 255,000 from the small blind.
The flop came J♦6♥3♥ and Zhou made a continuation bet of 190,000. Pardo made the call.
Zhou fired a second barrel on the 8♦ turn, this time for 350,000. Once again Pardo called.
On the A♣ river Zhou moved all in, covering Pardo's remaining stack of 400,000. Pardo snap-called.
Zhou tabled K♠K♥ but Pardo showed down 8♠8♣ for a turned set to secure a full double up while leaving Zhou as the new short stack of the group.
