Barbero Hangs On With Jacks
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
In a heads-up pot with 2,200 in the middle on a flop showing 4♦2♣2♥, Fahredin Mustafov checked from under the gun to Nacho Barbero next to act who bet out 1,200. Mustafov elected on a check-raise to 4,500 and Barbero came along.
On the 7♣ turn Mustafov kept up the aggression with a bet of 11,000, and after some thought, Barbero made the call. The 4♣ completed the board and Mustafov took awhile before tapping the table for a check to Barbero who quickly checked back to a showdown.
Mustafov rolled over 6♠5♠ for a missed straight draw and Barbero scooped the pot when he revealed J♥J♠ for the over pair.
