Almeras and Hoellerer Split
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Patricia Almeras opened to 2,500 from middle position, but Matei Lupascu in the hijack three-bet to 6,500. Tobias Hoellerer on the button called, and so did Almeras.
On a board of 4♠10♥9♠, Lupascu continued with a bet of 6,500 and his two opponents called. Then all three of them checked the turn 8♥.
The dealer revealed the J♥ on the river, and Aimeras immediately moved all in for 19,800. Lupascu folded, but Hoellerer snap called.
Patricia Almeras: Q♥J♠
Tobias Hoellerer: A♠Q♠
Both players hit the queen-high straight on the river, so they split the pot.
