Mestre Shows a Set in Massive Pot
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Nearly 300,000 was already in the middle as Joao Mestre and Davis Mihelsons went to the river on a completed board of 10♠3♣J♣7♠K♦.
According to tablemate Jon Kyte, Joao Mestre raised to 6,500 in early position, then called when Mihelsons three-bet to 18,000 in the hijack.
Mihelsons continued for 11,000 on the flop before Mestre raised to 29,000. Mihelsons called, then called when Mestre bet another 115,000 on the turn.
Mestre slowed down and checked the river, and Mihelsons paused for a moment before checking back. Mestre then showed 3♥3♠ for a flopped set and Mihelsons mucked.
"Afraid of ace-queen or kings. One of the two," Kyte said to Mestre as he raked in the massive pot.
