Barbero Takes With Two Pair
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was heads up with 8,000 in the middle and 2♣Q♦8♥J♦ on the board when Nacho Barbero bet 3,300 from the big blind and Gerald Karlic called from the cutoff.
The river was 7♠ and Barbero tossed out another 9,000. Karlic went into the tank for a few moments before he tossed in the chips to call. Barbero turned over J♥8♣ to take the pot with jacks and eights. Karlic sent the losing hand into the muck.
