Faria Withstands the Pressure
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jeremie Zouari opened to 20,000 from the cutoff and Luis Faria defended his big blind.
Zouari continued for 13,000 on the 10♣9♦10♠ flop, and then three-bet to 115,000 after Faria check-raised to 40,000. Faria called.
The 10♦ came on the turn, and Zouari sized down to 65,000. Faria stuck around.
The 6♥ river checked through to showdown, where Faria's 9♠6♦ (tens-full of nines) was good enough to drag in the pot.
