Abreu Ascends Again
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Nazar Buhaiov looked down at his cards in early position and raised to 200,000. Jorge Abreu called on the button, and Enrico Coppola defended in the big blind.
After two checks, Abreu made a minimum bet of 100,000. Both opponents called, after which the A♣ appeared on the turn.
Coppola checked in flow, but Buhaoiv decided to lead out for 325,000. Abreu was going nowhere and called, while Coppola decided to fold his K♥7♥.
The J♦ river slowed down the action as Buhaiov and Abreu checked it to showdown. Buhaiov tabled Q♥J♥ for a rivered pair, but Abreu had top pair with A♦3♦ to scoop yet another pot.
