Vieira Gets Lucky

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

On a flop of {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades} we saw Joao Vieira check from the small blind. The player in the hijack checked as well and the cutoff made a bet of 650. Vieira check raised to 2,025 and the hijack instantly folded. The cutoff made the call though.

Vieira bet another 2,200 on the {A-Spades} turn and the cutoff called once more. The {10-Clubs} fell on the river and Vieira thought for some time before checking. The cutoff checked behind and mucked reluctantly after Vieira showed {8-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for two pair.

With these odd chips being used here, it's sometimes hard to tell how much a particular player has. If we counted correctly, the Portuguese high roller has just under 40,000 while his opponent was bad beated back to about 7,200.
