Correia Is a Non-Believer
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alexandre Correia opened to 65,000 from early position and Thomas Santerne defended his big blind.
Santerne check-raised to 190,000 over a bet of 65,000 on the J♣10♥2♠ flop and was called.
Santerne fired out 490,000 on the 4♠ turn, leaving 10,000 behind. Correia went into the tank, and Santerne asked for the clock. As the countdown was about to begin, Correia called.
The last few chips went in on the 8♥ river and the cards were tabled.
Santerne tabled K♥J♦ for top pair, which bested his opponent's Q♣10♠.
