Maciel Doubles; Lam Exits
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Michael Uguccioni raised from under the gun to 24,000 and Heitor Maciel shoved 243,000 from middle position. When it got back to Uguccioni, he took around 20 seconds before he dropped in the call.
Heitor Maciel: 10♥10♣
Michael Uguccioni: A♦Q♣
Maciel was flipping for his tournament life, and probably lost some hope when he saw the A♣ hit the flop. Fortunately for Maciel, it was followed by 10♦2♣, which gave him a set. No improvement came for Uguccioni on the 3♦J♣ runout, and Maciel doubled up.
At the same time, Chau Shing Lam got in his stack of 126,000 with ace-seven and ran into the A♥K♠ of Stefan Jedlicka. No help arrived for Lam, and he hit the rail.
